David Beckham who left the Manchester United in 2003 for Real Madrid is dreaming of making a return to his old club. Beckham has made it clear that he would like to play at Old Trafford before the draw for the knockout stages of Champions League takes place. There is a good probability that Manchester United get paired with AC Milan after the draw. Beckham is set for a second loan spell and is expected to return to Milan in January and there is a good chance that English champions may face Manchester United in the succeeding month.

Beckham had a very good stint with Manchester United where he collected a Champion League winners’ medal in the 1999 season. Beckham admitted that he loves big games and had always hoped to play against his former team. He also said that he would love it if the draw puts AC Milan against his old club where he has not returned in the last seven years. He suggested that playing against his former club would be very difficult as well as very exciting.

Carlo Ancelotti, the Chelsea manger, though does not want to come up against AC Milan. He said he would prefer to avoid a one on one with Leonardo, the Milan coach. Ancelotti had guided Milan to two Champions League wins during his stint. However, he felt there wan no problem even if Chelsea was paired up against Milan acknowledging the fact that Football does put forward such type of situation.
