David Beckham: Official AC Milan Player!

Soccer star David Beckham and wife Victoria leave the Four Seasons Hotel and head to the San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy on Saturday.

There, Vice President of AC Milan Adriano Galliani presented David with a jersey, officializing him as a AC Milan player (a loan deal from the LA Galaxy).

Becks said, “Moving to America was a big step for me because there was a lot of people who were criticizing the move, but I still believe it was a move where I wanted to challenge myself and I was able to challenge myself in different ways. But I have always said that I would always miss playing at the highest level. I’m not saying that in America they won’t get to the highest level — it will take time and it will happen. But with five months off during the season I personally can’t do that… I needed to be able to be playing top-flight football to keep myself fit, to keep myself in contention for other things that are going on.”

Other pictures include Victoria leaving the Westing Palace Hotel in Milan. Apparently the Beckhams had a reservation at the Westing, which is the AC Milan corporate hotel, but Victoria did not like accomodations, so they went to the Four Seasons instead.
