AC Milan's Kaka looking forward to playing alongside David Beckham

Kaka is excited by the prospect of playing with David Beckham.

Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder Beckham is set to start a threemonth loan spell at AC Milan in January to keep up his fitness during the American close season. And Kaka hopes that period will be extended.

The Brazilian superstar said: "When David comes, he will see what Milan is like and he can maybe stay a little bit more, maybe until the end of the season or, who knows, for another year.

"I like him, he is very positive. He has a lot of talent with the ball. It will be very nice to play with him, I'm very happy."

But Mathieu Flamini has warned Beckham he will have to get used to life on the subs' bench when he links up with Milan.

The former Arsenal man said: "David Beckham is a great player but he is coming to a team with some great midfielders and we all want to play."
