Sacchi Wants Becks

After weeks of hearsay and speculation, it has finally been announced that Becks will be heading for Milanello next January.

Rossoneri Vice President Galliani announced yesterday that the Los Angeles Galaxy star will be added to Carlo Ancelotti's ranks for at least four months and "will form a dream team with Brazilians Kaka and Ronaldinho."

Some pundits on the peninsula have blasted the move and poked fun at the Via Turati outfit, for they seem to be willing to set up a big circus, merely to attract lavish sponsors.

But ex-Rossoneri legend and Italy boss Arrigo Sacchi maintains he is 100 per cent in favor of this action.

"I told Galliani to go after Beckham, because he can do great things for his team, unlike other players who can sometimes constitute a huge risk," he told Radio Radio Tv.

"He is an amazing professional and an exceptional lad. He won't stir up controversy in the squad and, if he is still the footballer that I admired a few years ago, I am confident he will add that little bit of extra quality to the side.

"In the past, players such as Rivaldo and Ronaldo have failed to settle in, but I'm sure it will be different with David, he will thrive at San Siro and Milan will greatly benefit from this transfer."

The deal will see the Diavoli secure a loan agreement for the England international during the winter transfer session, with the 33-year-old expected to return to Los Angeles when the MLS season restarts in April.
