There are rumors that the LA Galaxy will loan David Beckham to AC Milan for a few months.
As a fan of both AC Milan and American soccer, I don't think this is a good idea.
Most Americans only know the MLS because of Becks. If people hear that he is going over to Milan, they will think that the MLS couldn't keep him around. They might also find it weird that a player can be loaned out. Cleveland fans got mad when Lebron wore a Yankees hat when the Indians played the Yanks. How will they react if a player goes to play for a different team?
As for Milan, I think having Beckham would only be a gimick. The Rossoneri currently have a good mix of young players and big name veterans. They would be adding a new language and a new superstar to the locker room. This is a team that didn't even qualify for Champions League last year. They need to put together a team that can compete in Europe and Italy.
