French club PSG are desperate to sign Beckham and representatives travelled to California last week to offer the Los Angeles Galaxy star an 18-month contract to move to the Qatari-backed club in January.

Beckham, 36, is out of contract when the MLS season ends in November and had been expected to make a decision on his future this month.

The iconic midfielder has a close relationship with PSG coach Leonardo from his two loan spells at Milan and has said he feels 'honoured' to be wanted as the next addition to the 'exciting' project in the French capital.

But Beckham is not close to deciding on his future despite PSG's desire to wrap up a deal within weeks. He is likely to continue to weigh up his options amid plenty of interest, with a final decision expected before Christmas.

Beckham has been offered a one-year contract extension by LA Galaxy while English clubs Tottenham, QPR and Leicester have all expressed an interest in the former England international. Clubs from Brazil and the Middle East are also monitoring the situation.

PSG are believed to be in pole position to land the former Manchester United and Real Madrid star, but Beckham is known to be keen to hear from Tottenham after he spent time training with the Premier League club at the start of this year.

Spurs manager Harry Redknapp has said he would love to bring Beckham to White Hart Lane on a free transfer in January but the Londoners are yet to hold serious talks over a move.

One of the key factors as Beckham signs the last contract of his glittering career is his dream of playing for Great Britain at the Olympics in London next year.

Beckham feels it is vital to play in a European league at some stage this season to fulfill his ambition at London 2012. Even if he decides to sign a new contract with the Galaxy, he is expected to insist on a loan move to Europe in January.

Beckham believes he still has something to offer at the highest level and, wherever he moves, he will ask for reassurances that he will get regular first-team football. Sporting and family considerations will determine his decision rather than financial offers.
