David Beckham waiting for 100th cap with England

Although he is willing to play and win his 100th cap, English player David Beckham is not certain to take part in his national team’s friendly match next month against France. Coach Fabio Capello left him aside against Switzerland and recently declared that Beckham will not be selected unless he is absolutely ready.

“I've no match fitness,” the 32-year-old player explained. “All I've done is training. We're still two weeks into our pre-season routine and fitness-wise, we're getting there slowly. I would love to reach the 100 caps, but I have to be physically ready to be part of the team.”

When asked how he felt about Capello’s decision not to summon him for the friendly match at Wimbley, Beckham said he knew the coach since he was a player at Real Madrid and considered him a great manager and a good person. “He will pick players if he believes they are fit enough,” he added.

Next weekend, David Beckham will play for LA Galaxy in Korea against the FC Seoul in a friendly exhibition match, as part of a tour the team is making in Asia. This will be an opportunity for the player to show he is fit enough to play for England and win his 100th cap.
