David Beckham's family will not join the England midfielder in Italy when he begins his AC Milan career. The 33-year-old could make his Serie A debut this weekend when the Rossoneri travel to Roma.
Beckham, who is training with Milan in Dubai after the league's Christmas break, admitted the decision had been made with his children's education in mind.
"Everyone knows how much I love my wife and my children, but at the same time I love football," Beckham said. "My children will remain in Los Angeles due to school and Victoria will remain with them. When she (Victoria) comes to Milan she will remain with me for a couple of days."
The former Manchester United and Real Madrid midfielder, who has joined the Italian club on a two-month loan deal from Los Angeles Galaxy, admits he could not pass up the chance of playing in Italy.

"I love my team, the Los Angeles Galaxy, but this is a great experience," Beckham said. "Not everyone has had the opportunity to play at what everyone considers to be the best club in the world. I feel fortunate to have this great chance.
"I do not regret the choices I have made in the past because all of them I have thought through, including going to America. I have experienced a fantastic time there but now I am here and I only want to concentrate on this."
Beckham added: "I am always ready to play but it will be the coach that makes the decision. Physically, I know that I have to work hard to be 100 per cent, not just to play but to play better."
