Sunday Notes: Beckham hopes to bring English stars to MLS? British tabloid says Yes.

David Beckham may not have chosen the next challenge of his career yet, but according to the British tabloid The Mirror, he is currently attempting to lure several of England's biggest stars across the Atlantic.


British Tabloids are always of questionable factual value so take this with a heavy grain of salt, but the tabloid states that Beckham has been attempting to lure Liverpool FC captain Steven Gerrard, Manchester United's Michael Carrick, Stoke City's Peter Crouch, and Chelsea FC's Ashley Cole to MLS to as the article states "finish their careers in the U.S." 


In the same article, former English International Jermaine Pennant -- who is currently with Stoke City with Crouch -- states that he is interested in a possible move to MLS as well.
