BECKHAM TO REPORT FOR ENGLAND

Last updated : 18 November 2002 By editor

Beckham has been excused having to report tomorrow afternoon along with the rest of the 26-man squad but he will take part in the meetings and tactical analysis sessions on Tuesday before they all attend a reception with the Queen at Buckingham Palace in the evening.

Football Association spokesman Paul Newman told the Press Association: 'He has got an injury so he will not be reporting tomorrow afternoon along with the rest of the squad but he will be coming in on Tuesday though he obviously will not be training. He will be going with the rest of the squad to Buckingham Palace to meet the Queen.'
