DAVID BECKHAMS Real Madrid troubles deepened last night after
he was fined for arriving 10 minutes late for training.
Becks got a sarcastic round of applause from team-mates when he ran
from the changing rooms.
The night before the former England captain was spotted chatting to
tennis ace Maria Sharapova at the Bernabeu after Reals 1-0 win
over Steaua Bucharest.
This latest blunder was the SECOND time Becks, 31, has failed to
turn up on time this season.
The midfielder missed an entire team session on August 16 because a
flight from England was delayed and boss Fabio Capello is not
happy.
A spokesman for Beckham said: He only ran 10 minutes late but
there was no issue with the club.
Beckham admits he is unhappy and frustrated at Real after being
a sub in seven of their last nine games.
And after meeting Sharapova, 19, on Wednesday, he was spotted out
late at a restaurant with pal Ronaldo, 30, who is also in Capellos
bad books.
Ronaldo made it to training on time and stayed on with Beckham for
extra shooting drills after most of the squad had left.
Becks was the last to leave after practising free-kicks with Jose
Reyes.
