Beckham switches to focus on Italy loan
|
|
Bruised, battered and fatigued after enjoying his most successful season with Los Angeles Galaxy, David Beckham turned his thoughts on Tuesday to his loan spell with AC Milan in January.

Beckham’s move to Italy is motivated by the need to show England manager Fabio Capello he is in the right form and shape to make the squad for June’s World Cup finals in South Africa. The England midfielder made the same move to Italy last season, joining Milan in January and staying until the end of the Serie A season in May. ”The rest of the guys will go off and have a few months to relax, I go straight into the European season,” Beckham told reporters at the Home Depot Center after he and his team mates had their final meeting of the year with coach Bruce Arena. “I should be fine with that since I have been playing 65 games a year for the last 20 years. Nothing changes for me.” The first step that Beckham needs to take, though, is to recover from the bumps and bruises of the MLS season, particularly a bruised right ankle bone that caused him pain in the final week of the North American season.
