David Beckham is to join up with Italian giants AC Milan in time to join the club at their winter training camp in Dubai.
The former England captain issued a statement on his website today confirming his intention to travel with the squad on December 29.
"David will join up with his new AC Milan team-mates later this month for their Emirates Winter Training Camp in Dubai," the statement said.
"He’ll arrive in the United Arab Emirates along with the the rest of the Milan squad, including Ronaldinho, Kaka and Andriy Shevchenko on 29th December before beginning training the following day," it added.
Milan are scheduled to play against Hamburg in the Dubai Football Challenge on January 6 before returning to Italy.
Beckham is joining Milan on a short-term loan during the Major League Soccer’s close-season, and is due to return to the Los Angeles Galaxy ahead of the start of the 2009 season on March 21.
