David Beckham has reiterated his desire to return to LA Galaxy after his loan spell with AC Milan comes to an end.

The 33-year-old, who joined Milan purely to maintain his fitness for the England team, has said he will be joining the Italian giants on their tour of Dubai during Serie A's winter break.

Unable to play for the Rossoneri until January, Beckham has fended off constant speculation linking him with a more permanent move to Italy.

Any refreshed rumours over possible contract talks have been quashed with confirmation the LA Galaxy star will return to America in March.

Statement

"David will join up with his new AC Milan team-mates later this month for their winter training camp in Dubai," a statement said on his official website.

"He'll arrive in the United Arab Emirates along with the rest of the Milan squad on December 29

"David will stay with Milan until March, when he will return to LA Galaxy in time to begin the 2009 MLS season."
