Italian giants AC Milan have confirmed former England skipper David Beckham will join them on loan from MLS outfit LA Galaxy on January 7.

The Rossoneri made little secret of their interest in signing the former Real Madrid midfielder following the conclusion of the MLS season.

With Beckham on a lucrative contract with the Galaxy, the Los Angeles club have decided to offset some of that outlay by allowing Beckham to join AC Milan during the close-season.

Although the exact length of Beckham's stay at the San Siro remains as yet unknown, the Galaxy have always maintained the 33-year-old will return before the start of the new season.

The news of Beckham's stint in Italy is also a boost for Fabio Capello as it means the former captain of the side will maintain his match sharpness ahead of England's World Cup qualifier against Ukraine on April 1.
