AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani claims it is "very probable" David Beckham will re-join the Rossoneri on loan in January.[LNB] Beckham moved to the San Siro during the Major League football off-season last January, initially on a three-month loan deal, but impressed so much his stay was extended until the end of the Serie A campaign. It has long been expected the Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder would return to Milan to keep his fitness levels up and remain in Fabio Capello's England squad for South Africa.[LNB] "It's very probable that Beckham will come to Milan on loan until June 30, but I don't give anything as fact until there's a signature," said the Milan chief at a convention in Monte Carlo.[LNB] Galaxy confirmed they will be prepared to loan Beckham to a European club again.[LNB] Tim Leiweke, the chief executive of AEG which owns Galaxy, said: "We know he has to be playing in Europe leading up to the World Cup. That has been made clear to us, and we are going to support that.[LNB] "He will be somewhere come January, and we will see him back in July.[LNB] "We have a contract - and despite people thinking we're going to sell him, we're not. David is going to finish his career with the Galaxy."
