Beckham To Be Named In England Squad: McClaren
LONDON - Former captain David Beckham will be included in England's squad for next week's friendly against Germany despite being hampered by an injured left ankle for the past two months.
Beckham has made only two fleeting appearances for the Los Angeles Galaxy since joining the Major League Soccer (MLS) club midway through last month.
England coach Steve McClaren, who names his squad for the Wembley friendly against old rivals Germany on Friday, told reporters at FA headquarters on Wednesday: "He (Beckham) will be in the squad.
"I want him to come over and play a part against Germany but it all depends on what happens this evening."
Beckham, recalled by England in May after being dropped by McClaren after he took charge after last year's World Cup finals, is hoping to figure in the SuperLiga semi-final against D.C. United on Wednesday.
"We'll keep in close contact with him and the medical staff at LA Galaxy," McClaren said.
McClaren was in the United States last week and watched Beckham play against DC United.
"It was important for me to see how he was. He got 20 minutes (on the pitch), couldn't really do much, but he got through 20 minutes," added the England coach.
"I spoke to him afterwards, he was very very positive, very bright...enjoying the experience there.
