David Beckham 'feeling fine and happy'
Description
David Beckham says he is doing well after an operation on his ruptured Achilles tendon.
The 34-year-old former England captain "feels fine and is happy" as he recuperates from Monday's operation at a private clinic in southwestern Finland, according to his surgeon.
Beckham's wife, Victoria, arrived by private jet on Tuesday afternoon at a snowy Turku airport. She was met by dozens of screaming fans and photographers in the parking lot below the clinic.
"I'm feeling positive and now concentrating on getting back to full fitness over the coming months," Beckham said in a statement.
Doctor Sakari Orava said that Beckham's left Achilles' tendon was totally torn, ruling out his hopes of playing in his fourth World Cup.
However, he is optimistic that Beckham will make a full recovery.
