Beckham to join AC Milan on loan

Quote:

David Beckham has agreed to move to AC Milan on loan in January, the Italian club has told BBC Sport.
The England midfielder, 33, plays for Los Angeles Galaxy, whose Major League Soccer season ends this weekend.
Speaking on Wednesday morning, Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani said: "Beckham has chosen Milan. He'll stay here in Milan on loan for a few months.
"Our squad is ultra-competitive and it will remain this way but Beckham is something different and intriguing."
The former Manchester United and Real Madrid star, who needs two more appearances to eclipse Bobby Moore as England's most-capped outfield player with 108, is eager to stay in contention for his country during the MLS close season. http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/shared/img/o.gifHowever, England coach Fabio Capello has made it clear he will only select players who are active and in form.

I personally don't think think this will be comfortable for Beckham. He's still a fairly good player but the Italian League is very demanding and tough. Yeah, he's been playing for L.A Galaxy which is a breeze compared to the Italian Leagues, besides - I don't think he'll get much games.

Yeah, but it still shows they have the risk to get rid of their star player, because once his loan has finished, he could be bought!

No, Beckham is on loan in January for a few months. AC Milan can qualify for the Champions League next season but this season they're in the UEFA Cup.
