미국 스포츠 전문 매체 '블리처리포트'는 베컴이 최근 영국 BBC 방송과 인터뷰 한 내용을 4일 보도했다.
현재 미국 플로리다주에서 거주하는 베컴은 "요새 농구를 보러 다니는데 선수들 이 최고 수준의 경기를 펼치는 것을 보면 몸이 근질근질하다"면서 "경기장으로 돌아 가고 싶다. '은퇴를 번복하고 그라운드 다시 돌아갈 수 있을까?' 하는 생각을 하기 시작했다"고 말했다.
베컴은 프랑스 파리생제르맹에서 뛴 2012-2013시즌을 마지막으로 현역에서 은퇴 했다.
현재 자신의 지분을 투입해 미국 마이애미에 미국프로축구(MLS) 구단을 만드는 작업에 참여하고 있다.
베컴은 "지금까지 '플레잉 구단주(a player-owner)'는 없었다. 그러나 해볼 수 도 있지 않을까?"라며 그의 복귀를 바라는 팬들에게 여운을 남겼다. (연합)

Football: Beckham hints at retirement U-turn
Former England captain David Beckham has hinted that he could come out of retirement and resume his football career.
"Now I go to watch a basketball game and, when you are watching athletes play at the top of their game, for me it gives me that itch again," he said in a documentary to be broadcast by the BBC on Monday.
"I want to be back in the game then and I start thinking to myself, 'Could I play again? Could I go back? Could I come out of retirement and start playing again?'"
Beckham, 39, called time on his playing career last year after a brief spell with French giants Paris Saint-Germain.
The former midfielder is currently working to launch a Major League Soccer team in Miami and he suggested that he might consider turning out for the team.
"There's never been a player-owner, but maybe?" said the former Manchester United, Real Madrid, Los Angeles Galaxy and AC Milan player.
The documentary, David Beckham: Into The Unknown, charts an 800-mile (1,287-kilometre) journey that he made into the Amazon rainforest, ahead of this month's World Cup in Brazil. (AFP)
