Adriano Galliani: David Beckham Is Always Welcome At AC Milan
Galliani tells Beckham he will always be welcome at San Siro.
By Rupert Fryer
AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani has praised the character of England international midfielder David Beckham, insisting that the former Manchester United and Real Madrid man will “always be welcome” at the club.
Speaking to reporters this morning, Galliani is quoted by Reuters as saying, “Milan's doors will always be open for him, in July, next January or whenever he wants."
Beckham has just arrived for his second stint with Rossoneri and is scheduled to return to LA Galaxy in around eight weeks time, however rumours suggest both Beckham and Milan are hoping he may stick around a little longer.
“He's the man I court most,” said Galliani. “He's a fantastic footballer. You should see how he trains."
Beckham has so far enjoyed a successful return to Milan, having beaten Genoa and Juventus in his first two matches back in Italy. Milan currently sit second in Serie A, eight points behind city-rivals Inter with a game in hand.
