FOX Sports on MSN - USA - Beckham talks soccer with PM Brown: "The former Manchester United and Real Madrid midfielder also met Brown's wife, Sarah, and the couple's two sons, John and Fraser.
'He's interested in sports and his football,' Beckham told the BBC. 'He is very interested in doing a lot for my academy and also getting involved in schools around the country as well. He's a very good man. ... I'm very proud to be here.'
Brown is expected to visit Beckham's academy in London on Thursday.
Brown is also reportedly interested in having Beckham play a role in the 2018 World Cup bid. England hosted the World Cup in 1966, the only time it won the championship. Beckham helped London's winning bid for the 2012 Olympics.
'David Beckham did a brilliant job helping us winning the Olympics,' Brown said earlier Tuesday. 'I think the whole country was grateful for the work he and others did to make that possible. And if David Beckham can help us in the future on some of the other big national projects that would be to the benefit of the country.'
Beckham has been training with Arsenal to get ready for the Major League Soccer season in the United States. He is expected to be called up by new England manager Fabio Capello for the Feb. 6 friendly against Switzerland, which would be the 100th national team appearance of his career."
