AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani has declared LA Galaxy midfielder David Beckham is joining them in January. Beckham is keen to return to Milan where he played for six months last season in a bid to return to the England setup.

"It's 100 per cent certain. The only thing missing is the signatures. The agreement is done," Galliani told Sky Italia yesterday afternoon.

The midfielder will join Milan on a six-month loan. Beckham was outstanding in a similar arrangement last season.
