Galaxy and Milan Work Out Beckham Deal

David Beckham will stay at AC Milan until the end of the season after a "timeshare" deal was finally agreed with Los Angeles Galaxy. The 33-year-old former England captain will then rejoin LA Galaxy for several months, before returning to Milan at the end of the year.

Beckham was scheduled to return to Galaxy on March 9, but wants to make a permanent move to the San Siro. It is understood he has agreed a salary cut to ensure the move goes ahead.

It is understood the "timeshare" agreement means Beckham will miss at least 17 games of the Galaxy’s games this season. His projected return to MLS action will be July 18th at the New York Red Bulls.

Beckham’s projected MLS schedule then looks like this:
