England captain David Beckham could be a Champions League doubt for Manchester United after suffering a double ankle injury in his country's 1-1 draw with Holland in Amsterdam last night.

Beckham had previously been rated doubtful with an ankle problem sustained in United's 2-0 Premiership victory at Charlton on Sunday.

He was passed fit to face the Dutch but could now be struggling to be ready when United go back into European action against Nantes next Wednesday.

Beckham said: "I got a kick on the same ankle that I had got a kick on the other day - but I also got a heavier kick on the other side.

"At this moment I don't know the extent of the damage. But it is really swollen, so I'll just have to wait and see," he said.
