LONDON: David Beckham’s representatives yesterday said that  have not received a reported offer of a two-year deal from Qatari officials, and said the English midfielder will make a decision on his future next week after receiving 12 offers from around the world.

Beckham has been made offers from Europe, South America, North America, South Africa, Russia, China and the Middle East, though it is understood not from Qatar, after The Sun reported that the former England captain was offered a deal to play in the Qatar Stars League.

It is expected that Beckham, will speak with his advisors next week and go through the offers in detail.

The 37-year-old is viewing his next move as potentially his last as a player and those close to Beckham say he is attracted by the prospect of playing at a high level or in an environment where his presence would have a similar impact as when he first moved from Spanish giants Real Madrid to the Galaxy in 2007.
