David Beckham will return to Old Trafford to play a charity game between
Manchester United and a Europe team next month.
Beckham, who scored on his unexpected comeback for Real Madrid last
Saturday, has been confirmed as a member of the European All-Star team
which will play United in a jubilee match being staged to mark the 50th
anniversary of the founding of the European Common Market, the forerunner
of the European Union, and United's 50 years of European competition.
Beckham, Gerrard and Carragher have all been selected for the lineup and
the former England captain, who has been dropped by national team coach
Steve McClaren, will be returning to the ground where he had 11
successful seasons with Manchester United.
The European side will be managed by Italian World Cup winning manager
Marcello Lippi, who is expected to include several members of his squad
which lifted the trophy in Germany last summer.
