Becks: I'd rather give up football than quit United
DISTRAUGHT David Beckham last night sensationally confessed: "I'd rather pack in football than leave Manchester United."
In an emotional cry from the heart, Beckham even insisted he'd play for FREE to prove to Sir Alex Ferguson how much he wants to stay at Old Trafford.
The world's most-wanted player was devastated when United publicly confirmed they had accepted a conditional £30million bid from Barcelona, as revealed exclusively in the News of the World.
Now, in another exclusive, we can reveal how Beckham, close to tears, confided: "I'd rather jack it in than leave United.
They're the only team I've ever wanted to play for. I'm absolutely gutted over what's happened."
Beckham revealed his true feelings during an anguished conversation with his closest pal, Dave Gardner. The England captain told his friend that his heart will always belong to United and that he doesn't want to join Barca-or the other clubs battling to sign him, AC Milan and Real Madrid.
Incredibly, he even insisted: "I'll prove to Alex Ferguson my loyalty for the club by playing for free if I have to.
"United have always been my first club and I've had so many years with some of the world's quality players at Old Trafford.
"I don't want to go anywhere and the club confirming talks with Barcelona has left me speechless.
"If the club don't want me that's something beyond my control but my heart is at Old Trafford and I can't believe the way things have snowballed while I've been away."
United's 28-year-old superstar sounded heart-broken as he spoke to Gardner , 26, an ex-United apprentice who now runs a top Manchester-based sports agency.
Gardner told friends: "David is really upset. To say he's far from happy is an understatement.
"All he's ever done is give 100 per cent to the club and the way they're treating him is shocking. "
Beckham's dad, Ted, last week insisted his son hasn't spoken to Ferguson for two months-ever since their notorious dressing room bust-up when the United manager hurled a boot at Becks.
Gardner added: "I don't know why David and Alex haven't spoken for a while. That's their business.
"I'm a friend who cares for him but don't involve myself in club politics.
"But I will say David just can't believe what's happened. If he's got to go then so be it.
"He has alot of friends who care and will support him in whatever decision he makes."
