D-Day arrives for Beckham

It is deadline day for AC Milan in their attempts to keep David Beckham in Italy – and the England midfielder remains hopeful a deal can be struck with the Los Angeles Galaxy.

The Rossoneri are keen to retain the 33-year-old’s services after his loan spell from the Galaxy ends on March 9, and Major League Soccer said earlier this week the two clubs have until today to agree terms if the move is to go ahead.
