UPDATE – Looks as if earlier reports of Beckham being left off of Milan’s UEFA roster were incorrect and the official decision will be made following their Sunday afternoon match against Lazio by midnight.
Ancelotti told the club’s Web site, “The delivery of the UEFA list is tomorrow night at midnight. Beckham’s eventual insertion in the list is up to us to decide and will not be forced on us.”
In a big indication as to whether he will or will not be moving permanently to Milan, Carlo Ancelotti has left David Beckham off of the Rossoneri’s UEFA Cup squad roster.

If Beckham’s stay is only until early March, he would only be able to play in two matches for the team in Europe; the first and second leg against German side Werder Bremen.
Beckham has settled in well in Italy, making a positive impact in his first four games in Serie A, scoring two goals. Many of his Milan team-mates have announced that they hope the No. 32 will remain past his scheduled return date.
Meanwhile the LA Galaxy have always maintained Beckham will be returning on time. The official deal with the Rossoneri is a six-month loan, meaning Beckham would stay until June. However, the club’s supposedly have a ‘gentleman’s agreement’ that he will be allowed to go back to Los Angeles for the start of the MLS season.
