David Beckham will leave Real Madrid at the end of the season and join side Los Angeles Galaxy on a £128million ($250 million) five-year deal - which works out at a mere half-a-million pounds a week.
David Beckham, the embodiment of Real Madrid's 'Galacticos' ethos, will be leaving the famous Bernabeu stadium.
The former England captain will leave Real in June and begin his new career in Major League Soccer in August.

Beckham said in a statement: 'This week, Real Madrid asked me to make a decision regarding my future and the offer to extend my contract by a further two seasons.
That works out to $350,000,000 AUD over a 5 year period, which is valued at about £500,000 (1.25 Million AUD) per week. |

correct!!
But at 31 years old, its not a bad move financially. I think he has also realised his International days are up, which made the decision a little bit easier. |
