Beckham To Milan In January

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.
