AC Milan wants to extend Beckham’s contract

AC Milan are keen on keeping Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder David Beckham beyond March.

Beckham has just recently joined the Rossonerri on loan from the Galaxy until the start of the Major League Soccer season in March.

“We would be foolish not to look into extending his contract,” AC Milan’s director of operations Umberto Gandini said in the Sunday Mirror.

“David is a great player and we think he can fit into our game plan and give AC Milan a higher profile.

“What we have is a short-term contract in which he’ll play eight to ten games.”

Gandini added: “The impact he’ll make depends on what condition he is in as no one doubts his skills.

“David is a great pro and he can give the team a boost on the pitch.

“England manager Fabio Capello, whose opinion we respect a lot, has spoken very highly of him also.”
