England star David Beckham has decided to snub a loan move to North London club Tottenham in favour of a return to AC Milan.
Beckham, 34, said: "There are other options available, but none that will stop me going to Milan.
"It is close to being finalised.
"When I left, they said they wanted me to come straight back. I had such a marvellous time there. They are a great club.
"Harry Redknapp has been incredible about me, but I've always said since I left United that to play for another English club would be difficult."
