Beckham's lawyers meeting with AC Milan

The Associated Press , Milan | Thu, 10/30/2008 7:30 PM | Sports

David Beckham's lawyers were set to open talks Thursday with AC Milan over a loan deal, Milan vice president Adriano Galliani said.

"At first it seemed they would come next week, but actually Beckham's lawyers are going to be here today in Milan," Galliani was quoted as saying by the ANSA news agency. "We will open discussions. I don't know if they will conclude positively or not, but I hope so and think so."

Galliani announced last week that Milan was close to signing the former England captain on a loan deal from the Los Angeles Galaxy.

"We still have to define everything," Galliani added.

The 33-year-old Beckham is keen to play in Europe in the MLS offseason to remain match-fit and available for England coach Fabio Capello.
