David Beckham to Rejoin L.A. Galaxy?

David BeckhamDavid Beckham will rejoin the Los Angeles Galaxy next month after AC Milan declined to make a higher bid before a deadline passed for reaching an agreement to acquire the English midfielder.

Beckham, 33, told the Galaxy he wanted to stay with the Italian club, whose initial offer was rejected by the Major League Soccer team. MLS Commissioner Don Garber set yesterday’s deadline to complete a potential transfer.

“We did not receive an acceptable offer,” Galaxy Coach Bruce Arena said in a statement late yesterday. “As a result, David remains an LA Galaxy player and we look forward to having him back with the club starting March 9.” The MLS season starts 13 days later.
