Milan and Galaxy to share Becks
Friday 6 March, 2009

David Beckham is set to stay at Milan until the end of the season after the Rossoneri agreed a 'timeshare' deal with Los Angeles Galaxy.

The England international has become a firm favourite at San Siro but had ben due to return to LA this weekend.

However, after weeks of negotiation it seems the 33-year-old will stay at Milan until the end of the season.

This means he will miss at least 17 games of the 30-game MLS campaign, returning to action in the USA on July 18 against the New York Red Bulls.

The scheme will see Beckham return to Milan at the end of the year once the season ends.

It remains to be seen how Beckham will be received by Galaxy fans with many seemingly livid at his move to Milan.

Reports suggest that the former Manchester United man has taken a significant pay cut to secure the deal.
