Beckham was a big hit during his loan spell with AC Milan last season www.itssportsmania.tk ITS ALL ABOUT SPORTS

David Beckham will definitely rejoin AC Milan on loan in January, according to the Italian club's chief executive Adriano Galliani.

Beckham, 34, is keen to play for Milan to maximise his chances of making the England squad for the 2010 World Cup.

Galliani told Italy's Sky TV: "It's 100% certain. The only thing missing is the signatures, the agreement is done."

The Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder had a loan spell at Milan last season, during the Major League Soccer off-season.

He joined Milan on an initial three-month deal in January that was extended to the end of the season.

Beckham was a big success in Serie A and negotiations have been under way to repeat the arrangement.

The former Manchester United and Real Madrid player said the deal was "95% done" after appearing for England as a substitute during their 3-0 World Cup qualifying win over Belarus on 15 October, adding: "I don't see why it isn't going to happen. I always wanted to go back."
