Paris St Germain are set to unveil David Beckham as their new signing at a press conference on Thursday afternoon.
France boss Didier Deschamps believes Beckham's arrival will provide a welcome boost for the profile of Ligue 1. "He's a personality who goes beyond football, like Zlatan Ibrahimovic maybe. They are players who beyond our frontiers give an important visibility to Ligue 1. "But I won't judge it on a sporting perspective. I'm not the coach, general manager or owner of Paris St Germain. They've made their choice with David Beckham. He's a world football personality."
