Los Angeles Galaxy Turn Down 10 Million Dollar Offer for Beckham

The Los Angeles Galaxy have turned down a ten million dollar offer from AC Milan for David Beckham, who is currently on loan to AC Milan. Apparently Beckham has stated he wishes to prolong his loan-stay in Milan beyond March 9, when he should return to the United States for the MLS season. Beckham has been a great asset for Milan so far, scoring two goals in his opening five games, and Milan obviously wishes to keep him for this reason.
