David Beckham has tipped AC Milan to win the
Champions League, despite the fact the Italian giants
did not even qualify for the tournament.
He may have shaken off his reputation for not being the
brightest player in the game in recent years, but David Beckham
is still prone to a footballing gaffe.
The ex-England captain, who won the Champions League with
Manchester United in 1999, was asked at the opening of an
Adidas store in Dubai this week who he thought would win this
year's tournament.
Former clubs United and Paris Saint-Germain were predictably
among his selections, but his inclusion of AC Milan - who failed
to qualify following a dismal 2014-15 Serie A campaign - left
many fans baffled.
"Who do I fancy? Who do I want to win is a different story to
who I think is going to win. Or maybe it's not actually," he told
Sport360.
"I'm going to have to say Man United, PSG, AC Milan - one of
those three I'd like to see win."
