The England international was a target for Milan, but the club let him slip through their fingers. Sources close to the player have told World Soccer Daily that Becks will now team up with the Rossoneri in January to keep his fitness up while he prepares for the new season in April 2009.
The winger trained with Premier League side Arsenal in January and he will now do the same with Milan in the new year.
Milan chief Adriano Galliani admits that his club could have signed him and he will try again when Beckham arrives at Milanello this season.
"If Beckham had stayed to play in Europe then we would have signed him. He would have been ours after his experience with Real Madrid, but it didn't happen," said Galliani.
Speculation is rife that Milan will make sure the Englishman is signed up quickly, and reports around the penisula suggest a multi-million pound bid as the Italian club tries to creat an international dream team by adding Beckham after the capture of Ronaldinho.
Milan don't really have a natural right-winger in their team and Beckham will represent the perfect signing to continue building a squad full of superstars.
The lure of first team top-European football will appeal to 'Golden Balls' and he would relish the chance of trying his game in Serie A after his experiences in Spain for Real Madrid and the USA for Los Angeles Galaxy.

more like a marketing purposes...Becks in his thirties already.....not as good as he use to be....
WAAAAAAA if its true i would love to watch italian league
not surprising since ac is sponsored by adidas
The Serie A is just perfect for him, AC has been trying to get him since he left Real and this would be another opportunity for them to try to get him again... I don't think Beckham has any problem getting into the Milan side at all... He is still playing well and his crosses are still the best in the world... I even think he would go straight into the first 11 if he decides to join Milan.

ever since he married his wife, his whole life has been for marketing purposes.
nobody can bend it like beckham. his crosses are just so beautiful

ben stiller kicked the directors head and said i can bend it like beckham. hahahahaha
i saw him play for england recently, his cross is still so accurate and deadly.. and besides milan are a slow team and they likes the "experienced" kinda player..only that they dun seem to have much people good in the air.
What the poooooot? I havent seen a trace of the blue city yet!?
We don't know how true this story is, but in the event that it does...
AC Milan will become another "Dad's Army" kind of team. Or "Home for the Aged".
But I do agree: I think Becks is still very much an excellent footballer, mind. People seem to forget his value as a footballer. All the time.

'Milan' refers to AC Milan. The correct name for what is usually termed 'Inter Milan' is actually FC Inter.
Besides, 'Rossoneri' means 'Red-and-Blacks' or something.
