Football icon David Beckham is reportedly eyeing former teammate Cristiano Ronaldo to be a part of his dream team as he inches closer to a deal to run his own Major League Soccer (MLS) team in Miami.

According to the Daily Star, the former England and Manchester United footballer met Ronaldo and the rest of the Real Madrid 'Galacticos', including Kaka, at their training camp in Los Angeles.

Although Beckham is on course to become boss of his own US football franchise, the report however, said that Ronaldo might be out of Miami's reach with a price tag pushing 100 million pounds.

 

Meanwhile, Beckham is also planning to release a picture book in October in a deal with a UK publishing unit of French media company Lagardere, which will feature images from his playing career.

The former Real Madrid midfielder, who retired from football in May after a brief spell with French club Paris St Germain, is expected to release the book on October 31 with Lagardere 's UK-based Headline Publishing Group.
