SEATTLE, Washington - England midfielder David Beckham has a bone bruise in his right ankle, but he still expects to play for his US club Los Angeles Galaxy in the Major League Soccer championship match Sunday.
Beckham said Friday he will need a pain-killing injection in the ankle to be ready for Sunday's match against Real Salt Lake on the artificial pitch at Seattle's Qwest Field.
Beckham, who has won multiple English Premiership titles with Manchester United and a Spanish League title with Real Madrid, will be playing for the MLS championship for the first time with the Galaxy.
Beckham, speaking to reporters after the team trained on Friday, also said he thinks he has another few years of playing left in him and reiterated his plans to return to Los Angeles after next year's World Cup, in which he hopes to play for England.
He is due to go back to AC Milan on loan after the MLS season, and has said he hopes playing in Europe will boost his chances of making England's World Cup squad.
