Milan not to raise offer for Becks
February 22nd, 2009 - 5:09 pm ICT by ANI
London, Feb. 22 (ANI): AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani has said that they are not going to raise their offer from the reported three million dollar to continue David Beckham.
The Sun quoted Galliani, as saying, Milan has made the offer that it considered fair for an eight-month loan. As Leiweke confirmed, on November 30, David can become a free agent at zero cost.
Galaxy supremo Tim Leiweke announced on Saturday that Beckham would return to the US to continue his career on March 9 once his short-term loan spell ends with Milan, unless the Italians make a substantial increase to a reported three million dollar offer that he rejected immediately.
Galliani expressed his gratitude towards Galaxy for lending them the midfielder for sometime.
I dont intend to make a controversy, in fact, I thank Galaxy for allowing us to have Beckham on loan in these past few months, he added.
When asked if Milan will raise the offer, Galliani said: Absolutely not. I have experience to know the price of a player. And according to the European parameters, there is no sense is spending more.
Beckham has been a hit for Milan since joining the club in January and the England midfielder has expressed his desire to remain in Serie A. (ANI)
