Uncertain future for Beckham

David Beckham has cast uncertainty over where his future lies at club level after admitting there is no firm commitment in place to return to AC Milan next season.

His form for Milan, while on loan from Los Angeles Galaxy in the final third of last season, was crucial to Fabio Capello keeping Beckham as part of his plans.

It had been widely anticipated Beckham would return to the San Siro, but, asked when his future with Milan will be sorted out, he said: "I don't know. In the next few months. We will have to wait and see. There is nothing definite at all."

Beckham added: "I've got a break of four weeks. I don't go back to LA Galaxy until the 10-11 July and I'll start playing then. I'll get a couple of weeks rest and then start training again.

"I am going back to Galaxy to finish off the season and then in December I'll see where I go, whether it be Milan or somewhere else. I'll have to wait and see."

Beckham made his 100th start for England in Wednesday night's 6-0 win over Andorra at Wembley in a World Cup qualifier.

Beckham will be conscious of the need to play at a high standard ahead if he is to participate in a fourth World Cup finals in South Africa.

But he insisted: "I am not looking that far ahead. At the end of the day, I am happy to be in the squads I have been in with England.

"I am happy to have played the games I have played. It is a good squad to be in and I am happy. It is a great squad to be around and a great team to be in.

"People told me that against Andorra was my first 90 minutes for England since the 2006 World Cup and I knew it was quite a while ago. But I enjoy playing, whether it is coming on for 15 minutes or playing 90 minutes - especially when we perform like we have been doing."
