LONDON: David Beckham is unlikely to join Tottenham Hotspur on loan but may train with the English Premier League club instead, Spurs manager Harry Redknapp said on Sunday.
“I don't think it will happen -- there's a big problem with the insurance,” he told Sky Sports television.
“David is welcome to come and train with us for a month, which I think he would like to do. But as for him playing -- it's looking like a no-goer.”
Redknapp had hoped the LA Galaxy midfielder would sign a two-month loan deal in the transfer window before returning for the start of the Major League Soccer (MLS) season in the United States in March.
Reports had suggested Galaxy were against the idea of Beckham making another loan move in the American off-season.
The former England captain and Manchester United player injured his Achilles tendon playing for AC Milan last year and missed much of the 2010 MLS campaign.
