Football superstar David Beckham joins Serie A giants AC Milan from Major League Soccer on a two month loan. The global sporting icon was officially unveiled at the San Siro on Saturday evening.

Former England football team captain David Beckham (L) holds his new AC Milan's jersey as he poses with AC Milan's President Adriano Galliani during his official presentation at San Siro stadium in Milan.

Beckham was awarded the number 32 shirt, possibly because his own usual preference, the number 23, is already taken. Beckham is expected to be present as a spectator when Milan host Udinese on Sunday. The 33 year-old Englishman hopes that the move will allow him to force his way back into England manager Fabio Capello's plans.
