BEIJING, March 3 — AC Milan are working to extend David Beckham’s loan from Los Angeles Galaxy until the end of June with an eye to signing him permanently next year, chief executive Adriano Galliani said Monday.
”Then he could return to Los Angeles and come back in January. It’s a complicated path, as we have always known, but I’m trying.”
The clubs are close to an agreement for the loan extension which should be finalised by the end of the week, the Los Angeles Times reported on its website.
