Paris, je t'aime: Beckham set for PSG switch

Jonny Sexton just found himself a buddy for those trips to the Louvre.

DAVID BECKHAM IS set to join French club Paris Saint-Germain.

The 37-year-old midfielder is reportedly in line to be unveiled by PSG later today after the club announced a 4pm (Irish time) news conference at the Parc des Princes.

Qatari president Nasser Al-Khelaifi and sports director Leonardo will be in attendance but no further details were given. Leonardo made no comment about the Beckham reports when contacted by AFP.

Beckham has been without a club since ending a five-and-half-year spell in the United States last month after winning a second MLS Cup with the Los Angeles Galaxy.
