He may no longer be the “Captain of England,” but Mr. David Beckham still wants to play for England. However, speculations seem to point Beckham in an uncertain direction.

Becks’ current contract with AC Milan in Italy seems like a move to make him qualified for the England selection for the 2010 World Cup finals. His transfer to San Siro is just a temporary arrangement before he returns to the Los Angeles Galaxy for the Major League Soccer season.

But, according to the Italian Gazzetta Dello, Beckham is very much enjoying his stint in Italy. The renowned athlete is even studying Italian, which indicates that he might want to stay in Italy for the long term.

If he stays, he will forfeit his pending contract with the LA Galaxy. This is something Beckham doesn’t want to do. Apart from getting a bad fall out from the team and the American press, he will contradict himself as he publicly made clear that he always wants to honor his contracts.
