Becks faces debut delay
Monday 5 January, 2009

David Beckham may miss out on making his Milan debut against Hamburg tomorrow.

The LA Galaxy man has arrived on loan and has been training with his teammates in Dubai.

Beckham has impressed his colleagues with his efforts so far, but a muscular problem may deny him his first Rossoneri appearance.

The England international had been expected to start against the Bundesliga outfit, but Carlo Ancelotti will now review the situation before kick-off tomorrow.

The main priority for Beckham is to recover ahead of Sunday's crunch match against Roma.

Dutch star Clarence Seedorf is waiting in the wings ready to step in should Beckham fail a fitness test.

Milan (probable): Abbiati; Zambrotta, Maldini, Kaladze, Jankulovski; Beckham, Pirlo, Flamini, Ronaldinho; Pato, Shevchenko
