Beckham would consider return to Premier League
Just days after returning to Los Angeles Galaxy, David Beckham has revealed he could yet return to England to play in the Premier League.
The former England captain is desperate to play at the World Cup in South Africa next year and knows he must return to Europe in January if he is to stay in the thoughts of coach Fabio Capello.
A return to AC Milan still seems to be the most likely outcome, although with Carlo Ancelotti now decamped to Chelsea there is an element of doubt.
Beckham had previously stated there was no chance of him playing for any other Premier League side than Manchester United.
The 34-year-old said: "I would definitely consider it. Never say never. When I left United, I said I would never want to play for another English club.
"My heart was in Manchester - and I couldn't see myself wearing another shirt in the Premiership and playing against United. Now I wouldn't rule it out.
"Obviously Milan expressed that they want me to go back, so I don't see any reason why that would change. We'll have to wait and see. I hope to be going back there.''
Beckham also insisted the row with Galaxy teammate-Donovan-is over. The pair had talks after Donovan criticised Beckham and his conduct since being signed by the MLS side two years ago.
"I'm not going to talk about what was said," he said. "That was between me, Landon and the manager but we had a good talk.''
Beckham also stressed his desire to see out his five-year MLS contract.
"I intend to stay until the end of my contract and maybe further,'' he said. "I've always said that. I've always said, even when I went to Milan, that I'm committed to the Galaxy and to MLS, and that hasn't changed.''
