victoria beckham and david beckhamVictoria Beckham has reportedly decided that she will support husband David Beckham if he is offered the chance to join AC Milan permanently.

David is currently on temporary loan to the team during LA Galaxy’s off-season but is said to be hoping for a permanent offer after being reminded how much he prefers playing the game in Europe. But after moving their family to Los Angeles in 2007 and establishing a life for them - and a career for herself - in California, Victoria was said to have been incredibly reluctant about the move.

However, a source close to the family has said that after a lot of thought and discussion, Victoria has now changed her mind and will split her life between LA and Italy.

The source told the Sunday Mirror: “It was a painful decision for Victoria and there were a lot of tears.

“She was really worried about leaving David behind in Italy. It brought back terrible memories of [their years in] Madrid and all the stories about women and nightclubs.

“But what she likes about Milan is that it is a very family-friendly team. After the matches, it is very Italian and players are out with their wives and children. It’s not like Real Madrid where they were all egotistical, super-God players with their fast cars and champagne lifestyle.

“She also realised she was fighting a losing battle – David is playing extremely well with Milan and she can see he has got his spark back. He knows if he is going to make the England World Cup 2010 team he has got to start playing top-flight football again.

“Posh decided she has to stay in Los Angeles for the children but will commute regularly to Milan.”
