Beckham is in Real Madrid's plan
|
Real Madrid coach Fabio Capello insists David Beckham is part of his plans.
Beckham, who is in discussions about a new contract at the Bernabeu, made his first start for Real in five games last weekend when he was included in the side to face Getafe.
However, after Real were defeated 1-0 in that match to lose their unbeaten start to the league season, Beckham found himself back on the bench for the midweek Champions League clash with Steaua Bucharest.
"I have 20 players who can start, for three weeks Helguera did not start, Robinho the same...I watch much of the training and Beckham trains very well, but now I have other ideas," Capello said.
"But he works to be a starter and he will be. He forms part of my plans, and for that reason I asked for his contract to be renewed."
