London, April 1 (IANS) British soccer star David Beckham is struggling to master the French language since taking up a place on a Parisian team.
The 37-year-old joined Paris Saint-Germain Football Club this year after leaving Los Angeles Galaxy, but he isn’t picking up the local language as quickly as he had hoped.
Beckham admits it took him a year to start speaking Spanish while he was playing for Real Madrid earlier in his career, and fears his French isn’t sounding much better.
“I am too shy. When I was with Real Madrid it took me a year to learn a word of Spanish. But be patient – I will get there (with French),” contactmusic.com quoted Beckham as saying.
