David Beckham returns to Real Madrid first before he leaves it and plays for the Los Angeles Galaxy

Remember David Beckham? 'Course you do. Well, the former English captain returned to Real Madrid after being sidelined for six weeks.

The last time we checked Victoria Beckham's spice boy, he was ready to join the Los Angeles Galaxy and Major League Soccer (MLS) in top form before the injury bug bit him hard in the ass.

David Beckham suffered a knee injury early March in Real Madrid's 1-1 home draw with Getafe. All of a sudden, his promising move from Real Madrid and the Spanish League to the United States with the Los Angeles Galaxy was in peril.

Many thought the Los Angeles Galaxy won't go ahead with the deal because of the injury and after David Beckham was ruled out of Real Madrid's Champions League campaign, it definitely looked like he will be ruled out of his MLS future too.

Well, after weeks and weeks of anticipation, David Beckham finally made his long-awaited return to Real Madrid Saturday when they took on Valencia at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.

Beckham completed a full training session with Real Madrid for the first time, six weeks after spraining a right knee ligament during a league match. Well, after being out of Real Madrid for weeks, Beckham only missed five league games, (thanks to the weird scheduling of games in soccer / football / or whatever it is you'd like to call it...) and his return will definitely be a big boost for Real Madrid's current campaign.

Oh yeah, the Los Angeles Galaxy should be glad too. You see, David Beckham still has eight matches remaining with Real Madrid before he can go to the States and play for the Los Angeles Galaxy in August, watching him back in action may very well bring a sigh of relief to the once restless Americans in L.A.

Real Madrid is third in the league with 54 points, five behind leader FC Barcelona. They still have a chance of winning the title, which would be Beckham's first major trophy since he joined the club from Manchester United in 2003.
