David Beckham Says Manchester City Will Never Be Bigger Than Manchester United

Former Manchester United star David Beckham has told Manchester City that they “will never be bigger than Manchester United” and added the would never sign to play former.

Beckham, who is currently on loan with AC Milan until the end of the season made the comments ahead of United’ Carling Cup clash with City tonight.

The England international told Mirror: “I would never sign for Manchester City,” he said. “That’s mainly because I am a Man United fan. It doesn’t matter about money. It is always about loyalty with Manchester United.

“They are the team I supported and the team that I played for for years and I just couldn’t bring myself to sign for City. I couldn’t do it.

He added: “City will never be bigger than United. Money does a lot for a club and a team, but being successful and being one of the most recognised clubs in the world doesn’t come from the money.

“It’s about history. There aren’t many clubs that can boast the history of Manchester United, Real Madrid, Barcelona or AC Milan. It’s not about having all the money in the world. All that does is creates attention but you can’t buy the history of a club.”
