Wales talisman Gareth Bale is set to swap Real Madrid for Los Angeles FC as the latest British star to head to Major League Soccer, the PA news agency understands.

Here, PA looks at other top Brits to take the US plunge. England superstar Beckham ended four years at Real Madrid with a move to LA Galaxy, and went on to spend five years in the States.

The 11-cap midfielder started to wind down his remarkable career in Los Angeles, but would then later enjoy short stints at both AC Milan and Paris St Germain to cap his trophy-laden time in boots.

Ever-bullish England striker Rooney headed out to DC United in 2018, after a one-year return to first club Everton that followed a stellar stint at Manchester United.
