Beckham may not play for Milan, says Seedorf


AC Milan's Clarence Seedorf believes it's quite possible that new loan signing David Beckham won't play a single match for the Italian giants.

Beckham, 33, is due to arrive at the San Siro in January after agreeing a temporary move from LA Galaxy during Major League Soccer's
close season.

The former Manchester United and Real Madrid midfielder hopes this will keep him in the thoughts of England manager Fabio Capello, who has made it clear he won't pick players for February's friendly against Spain unless they are actively involved with a club team.

However, Seedorf told Sky Sports on Thursday: "I don't even know if he'll be able to play for us. I mean the first goal is for him to get fit and in the best shape possible.

Nevertheless Seedorf, said he was looking forward to welcoming Beckham, now just one short of 1966 World Cup-winning captain Bobby Moore's England record of 108 caps for an outfield player, to Milan.

Meanwhile Milan's Brazil star Ronaldinho, who played against Beckham when at Barcelona, said he would have no qualms about handing over free-kick duties to the Englishman, one of his few rivals as a dead-ball expert.
