Article:Sharing Beckham is Caring..



A unprecedented agreement between Italian powerhouse AC Milan and LA Galaxy is on the cards. Is it truly over?

Serie A heavyweights Milan and LA Galaxy could be about to reach an unprecedented and unique agreement involving the iconic English midfielder David Beckham.

Beckham's future has to be decided by Monday, and negotiations are continuing in an attempt to tie him to Milan past the March 10 deadline.

British media outlet Sky Sports have stated that, due to Beckham's desire to remain in Milan, together with the calcio  club's interest in securing a permanent move for the player - who has taken the Italian league by storm - a "unique agreement" will be discussed this week that will see Milanese and Galaxy oufits effectively "share" the 33-year-old.

Sky Sports indicate that the unique agreement will see Beckham stay with Milan for the rest of the Serie A season. He will then return to the Galaxy to compete for the remainder of the MLS season before moving back to Italy for what could be the final transfer of his long and illustrious career.

The move will be a new deal in world football and is already being dubbed a "time share" agreement.

One further option for Milan is to buy Beckham outright. However, some sources believe that AC Milan will have trouble financing the deal as LA Galaxy are unlikely to settle for anything less than €11.2 million (£10m).

The Galaxy's stance on the matter remains the same as it has done since day one. They are still adamant that Beckham will honor the initial agreement and will return State-side on March 10.

This has gone way to long and March 10 is drawing nearer and nearer, I don't think Beckham has enough stamina left in him to play throughout the summer and return fit enough to play for AC Milan, but I underestimated Beckham when he went to Milan in the first place, I won't do it again.
