David Beckham would be welcome to train with Serie A giants AC Milan over the winter. The club's vice-president Adriano Galliani confirmed the midfielder had been "close'' to joining the Rossoneri before moving to LA Galaxy from Real Madrid. "If Beckham wanted to train with Milan, then I would have to ask coach Carlo Ancelotti, but from the club's point of view, there would not be any problem", said Galliani.
Beckham is keen to keep up his match sharpness in order to remain part of the national squad but with the Major League Soccer season coming to a close he will need to find alternative arrangements. The former England captain is eager to stay in Fabio Capello's England plans as he bids to add to his 107-cap tally. With only another 2 caps, he will overtake Bobby Moore as the country's most capped outfield player.
Meanwhile, the current and former England internationals David Beckham and John Barnes have been appointed vice-presidents for England's 2018 World Cup bid. The pair will support the newly-formed executive board along with further vice-presidents soon to be announced and their appointments reflect an initial wave of ambassadorial roles as England 2018 Ltd continues to prepare its bid to stage the tournament in 10 years' time.
