The Perth Glory have firmed to be the club to secure the services of David Beckham with punters from online bookmaker sportsbet backing them from $8.00 into $3.75 and outright favourtism.
The only other team to firm in betting to snare Beckham has been Adelaide United, who’ve tightened from $12 into $7.00.
“Numerous clubs have expressed their interest but punters think Tony Sage and the Perth Glory will be the ones to welcome Golden Balls down under,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“He’s very much a metrosexual so playing in purple shouldn’t be an issue for Becks.”
The Western Sydney Wanderers remain on the third line of betting at $6.00, while every other club has drifted in betting, most notably the Melbourne Victory ($4.00 out to $8.00), the Mariners ($8.00 out to $10) and Brisbane Roar ($8.00 out to $16).
