David Beckham Officially Headed Back To Milan
Back in September we learned that David Beckham reportedly signed a deal with Italian football club AC Milan to return to Europe to play for the team in January after the MLS soccer season here in the US comes to a close. Today, AC Milan has officially announced the deal, confirming that Becks will play for Milan again. Over the weekend, tho, Becks was still in his LA Galaxy uniform playing for his current team … in addition to playing, Becks was also yelling and scratching … behold:
LA Galaxy midfielder David Beckham’s move to AC Milan has been confirmed. Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani has revealed LA Galaxy have agreed a January loan deal that will keep Becks’ World Cup hopes alive. England boss Fabio Capello told midfielder Beckham, 34, he would rule him out of the 2010 finals unless he plays in a top European League next year. And Becks has now clinched his first-choice move — a repeat of last season’s Milan spell where he hit two goals in 18 games. Galliani said: “The agreement for David Beckham has been completed. In a few hours we and Galaxy will officially announce this deal. We are just waiting for the very last documents but I confirm that he will return to Milan.” AC Milan coach Leonardo added: “I consider Beckham as if he had always been here because he has only been away for six months. “In any case he will be a player that will contribute a lot, not only on the pitch but also inside the group, as the players like him infinitely.”
And there you have it … it remains to be seen if we’ll get to enjoy Beckham’s talents here with the LA Galaxy in the future but he is deffo heading back to AC Milan to play there again. As much as Becks love his soccer, it’s clear that he also loves his basketball. Becks and his eldest son Brooklyn were spotted courtside at an LA Lakers game this weekend as well. After the jump, check out a few adorable pics of father and son bonding over basketball …
You may recall that just a few days ago we saw photos of Les Beckhams with the kiddies at the Staples Center but this latest visit was one just for father and eldest son … behold:
Soooo freakin’ cute! David Beckham clearly loves doting on his kids … it’s nice to see that his boys aren’t too grown to be embarrassed by this sort of public display of affection. Becks may be headed to Milan in January but I’m sure we’ll be seeing a lot of him around these here parts in the meantime. After all, basketball season has just begun.

I meant to add, I think in instances like this, it’d be nice to be a celeb. While I’m sure David doesn’t troll pink is the new blog, looking for pics of him (although, he definitely should!!) cute pics like this would make a wonderful scrapbook. Because they were candid, I think the pics do capture a father’s love for his son.

@Bee – I hear what you’re saying..Candid loving moments are always the best..I love this family! And don’t forget to mention, Trent, that the Galaxy tied their first game in the MLS Western playoffs against Chivas! It’s not a win but at least it’s not a loss! Wheee!

How can you not love the Beckhams? It’s pretty obvious that although David and Victoria get a lot of press, they try being as normal as possible around their kids.
