David Beckham will himself buy out his LA Galaxy contract to make the move to AC Milan as permanent. Reports say Beckham will move to AC Milan promptly by buying out his contract with soccer’s Los Angeles Galaxy.

While many reports say Beckham could remain temporarily with Milan til June, a new report says Beckham will make the move quicker by picking up the bill himself.

How soon?

The deal reportedly could be done as soon as this week. Beckham would then be able to continue to play with AC Milan through the current season ending May, rather than return to Los Angeles where he maintains a home in Beverly Hills.
