Real Madrid appears ready to finally forgive David Beckham. The team became outraged when they found out that their star player had decided to sign with a Major League Soccer team in the United States last month. Real Madrid's coach became so angry that he told Beckham that he would no longer be allowed to play with team. All Beckham wanted to do was play soccer. It appears that he will finally get that chance.

After being left off the team roster for a little more than a month, Real Madrid has decided to add Beckham back to the team. He is listed on the roster for their upcoming game on Saturday Real Sociedad. This is exciting news for a team that has struggled to get wins without their leader. Even though Beckham's skill level has greatly decreased over the past few years, his overall importance to the team is far greater. He is a soccer sports icon that is loved worldwide. His appearance Saturday will most likely give the team energy and fire that has been missing.

The decision to let Beckham return to the team is rather shocking. It appeared that his career was truly over with Real Madrid. The two parties were in deep negotiations on a two-year contract extension. While negotiating, the LA Galaxy decided to make a deal that Beckham simply could not refuse. He received a contract offer that is rumored to total $250 million. Beckham quickly signed the contract and outraged his coach and team. Real Madrid's head coach Fabio Capello stated that the former English captain would never again play for the team after his announcement to sign with the LA Galaxy.

It appears that the parties have been negotiating to allow Beckham to play out the rest of his contract. This turn of events benefits both parties. Beckham will be allowed to play the game he loves and remain in shape for the upcoming Major League Soccer season. Real Madrid will get back their emotional English leader. They are hoping that they can end the season on a high note. Both parties want to pay respect to one another. They understand that they are better together than without each other.
