LONDON (AP) - David Beckham has re-signed with the Los Angeles Galaxy, agreeing to a two-year contract with the Major League Soccer club.

The 36-year-old former England captain signed the deal on Wednesday after turning down a chance to move back to Europe with Paris Saint-Germain.

In a statement provided to The Associated Press, Beckham said: “I had many offers from clubs from around the world, however, I’m still passionate about playing in America and winning trophies with the Galaxy.”

Beckham made the surprise move to the Galaxy in 2007, signing a five-year deal after playing for Real Madrid.

Beckham and the Galaxy won the MLS Cup in November.
