The list below features all players who have played in fewer than 25 matches in official competitions for Paris Saint-Germain.[5] Most notably, it includes global icon David Beckham. PSG signed him in January 2013. At 37 years of age, it was one last challenge for the English superstar, who had enjoyed a glittering and successful career at Manchester United, Real Madrid and LA Galaxy.[6]
Beckham hanged up his boots after an emotional victory over Brest at the Parc des Princes in May 2013 which sealed PSG's first Ligue 1 title in 19 years. He was made team captain, receiving a standing ovation from fans, players and staff after the final whistle. Beckham finished his career playing at the highest level, while the club benefited from Beckham's commercial allure.[6][7]
