Redknapp hails Beckham class

Harry Redknapp is ready to send a Premier League relegation SOS to David Beckham as he tries to engineer another miracle escape at QPR.

Rangers have taken only four points from their opening 13 fixtures, and new boss Redknapp has admitted there is no cash in the kitty to sign reinforcements during the January transfer window. That points to a move for Beckham, who is preparing to leave Los Angeles Galaxy after their MLS Cup clash with Houston Dynamo next Saturday.

"I'm sure he could still play in the Premier League," Redknapp told BBC Radio Five Live's Sportsweek programme. "He is a top player and a fantastic person. We had him at Tottenham training and he was amazing around the place, absolute class."
