AC Milan acquired Beckham on loan from the Los Angeles Galaxy of American league, Major League Soccer. Following an injury plagued year with the Galaxy in 2008, Beckham felt the need to prove his self as fit for the England team looking to qualify for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
According to a report filed with Telegraph.co.uk on Friday, Jan. 30, suggest the move to AC Milan could become permanent. The report stated that Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani is hopeful a deal can be struck with Galaxy.
The loan agreement with Galaxy is for three months. Beckham is due to return to Los Angeles in March.
In an interview earlier this week Beckham dropped hints that he wished to stay with AC Milan saying it was a “dream” to play for the club. It’s also been reported Beckham is unhappy in the USA describing playing for the Galaxy as “frustrating”.
