Reports: Becks calls in the lawyers
Tuesday 3 February, 2009
There are reports that David Beckham has instructed his lawyers to find a way for him to stay at Milan.
The England international midfielder is on loan at San Siro and is due to return to Los Angeles Galaxy on March 9.
But Milan Vice-President Adriano Galliani has stressed his desire to keep Beckham at the club for the long term.
According to the Corriere della Sera, Beckham has informed the Galaxy that he intends to negotiate with Milan and has asked for a mutual separation.
However, legally, the American side have no obligation to allow Beckham to leave because he is under contract until 2011.
It has been suggested that Beckham's lawyers may be able to find a legal loophole that would allow him to become a free agent.

Milan are so impatient. Why not just sign him in 2011, he'll be ripe for Milan then.
