David Beckham will hold talks with Real Madrid next week over their offer of a new two-year contract.

The former England skipper is out of contract at the Bernabeu in June.

His spokesman, Simon Oliveira, told BBC Sport: "There is a significant deal on the table from Real. It's slightly more than he's currently on.

"They are the only club we are genuinely talking to at the moment and another meeting is scheduled for the second week of January."

Some British newspapers had reported that the deal had stalled because Beckham wanted complete control of his image rights and Real were unwilling to comply.

Under the terms of his current contract, Real own 50% of Beckham's image rights.
