David Beckham to go back to Europe.

 It was just announced yesterday by AC Milan vice-president that David Beckham is already a "done deal" to go back to Europe and play from January until May, off-season of the MLS where Beckham plays regularly. Beckham already tried this last year, and it caused some controversy because the deal was made for him to originally come back to the U.S. on march, but he after decided he wanted to stay longer and signed an extension until May of 'O8.
 Ever since the L.A. Galaxy signed David Beckham a couple of years ago, there has been huge controversy because it was said that he just wanted to come here for the money, because a top-rated player like himself would find no match to his high level of skill in the MLS. I think what happened last season when Beckham went to Milan to play was that he remembered how good and pleasant it is to play at the highest level of soccer, which is in Europe. Then his contract was up, he did not want to come back and play here in the U.S., because the competition is not has high and soccer is not as big.
 The L.A. Galaxy are taking a huge risk by agreeing to this deal, because just like last season he wanted to stay more, this season he might just want to stay for a long time. There were a lot of problems last season when he wanted to stay more, especially since the MLS season starts in March and the Galaxy payed $250 million for Beckham to play for them, but he was not there for the start of the season since he was helping out in Europe. I think when Beckham's contract with Galaxy is up in a couple or years, he will go back to Europe and we might see him at his highest level once again.

  1. Hello erazmo, i feel like david beckham had his time. Even thought he might go back to europe doesn't mean that the teams will want him. He hasn't been doing to much work in soccer carrer and he is getting old. I feel like even though he goes to europe he is not going to get playing time. : )
