Galliani says Beckham loan 'very probable'
MILAN (AP) AC Milan CEO Adriano Galliani said Monday that it's very likely that David Beckham will join the club on loan from the Los Angeles Galaxy again in January.
"It's very probable that Beckham will come to Milan on loan until June 30, but I don't consider anything done until there's a signature," Galliani said at a meeting in Monaco on Monday, according to the ANSA news agency.
Tim Leiweke, the chief executive of Anschutz Entertainment Group, which owns the Galaxy, said last week he wants the deal for Beckham's return to Milan to be completed within two weeks.
Beckham performed well in a six-month loan with Milan last season, and he wants to return to Europe to maintain his place on England's World Cup squad.
Milan could use the help, with only nine points through the first seven rounds of Serie A and new coach Leonardo's job already on the line.
Beckham has helped the Galaxy reach the Major League Soccer playoffs for the first time in four years and the Nov. 22 final is in their sights.
