David Beckham is trying hard to prepare himself for this Sunday’s Major League Soccer final.

The 34-year-old admitted last night that he hasn’t trained since suffering from a bruised ankle during the team’s last playoff victory.

Beckham is still confident that he will start in the final against Real Salt Lake, which will be his first chance to win a title since joining the LA Galaxy.

“I haven't trained since the game the other day so it's been a bit of a worry,” explained Beckham in an interview. “'I had bad bone bruising. I have done a little running now, which is important. It was the first time I'd actually been able to wear trainers.”

He continued, “It's a lot easier now. At my age you go into games and nothing is perfect. You always have a niggling injury of some sort.”
