Who was not selected as one of the three overage footballers for the Great Britain team at the 2012 Olympics?

The Great Britain men’s Olympic football team is the men's football team that represents the United Kingdom (Great Britain and Northern Ireland) at the Summer Olympic Games (where it competes as Great Britain, currently branded Team GB).

After the Football Association abolished the distinction between amateur and professional players in 1974, it stopped entering a team. By the 1992 Games teams could use professionals, but were restricted to players under 23 years old, with only three over-age players allowed per squad. Despite this change, Great Britain did not enter a football team again until London won the right to host the 2012 Games.

The 2012 squad contained 13 English and 5 Welsh players but no Scottish or Northern Irish players. Ryan Giggs, Craig Bellamy and Micah Richards were selected as the three overage players.

David Beckham (born 2 May 1975) is an English former professional footballer. He played for Manchester United, Preston North End (on loan), Real Madrid, AC Milan (on loan), LA Galaxy, Paris Saint-Germain and the England national team. He was shortlisted for the 2012 Olympics, but was left out of the final squad.
