Beckham: It's not about money

MILAN – David Beckham said Friday that his desire to move to AC Milan is about sporting reasons and that the financial side of any potential transfer does not concern him.

The ex-Manchester United and Real Madrid player admitted for the first time on Wednesday that he wants to stay with the San Siro side rather than return to the Los Angeles Galaxy once his three month loan period finishes on Mar. 8.

“At the moment Milan is more important than money. I want to think about football before everything else. I said in a clear manner what I think, I want to stay at Milan because I’ve rediscovered myself as a football player,” he told Corriere dello Sport. (AP)
