El volante inglés, quien se unirá oficialmente a préstamo al Milan en enero, posiblemente viajará a Glasgow con su nuevo club italiano para un amistoso contra Rangers el 4 de febrero, 2009.
"David Beckham ha sido posiblemente el futbolista más famoso del mundo en años recientes, y los seguidores de todas las edades estarán ansiosos por verlo en persona", dijo el jueves el director ejecutivo de Rangers, Martin Bain.
Beckham jugará tres meses con el Milan para mantenerse en forma durante las vacaciones de la MLS, donde juega con el Galaxy de Los Angeles, reseñó AP.
El Milan cuenta con numerosas figuras de renombre mundial, como los brasileños Kaká y Ronaldinho.
English:
Milan will travel to Glasgow for the friendly on Wednesday, Feb 4.
Beckham, 33, was given permission to sign for Milan on loan from LA Galaxy in order to maintain his fitness as he bids to reclaim a place in the England squad.
As well as the former Manchester United and Real Madrid midfielder, the Serie A club also boast superstars of the calibre of Kaka, Ronaldinho and defender Paolo Maldini.
Sadly for Rangers fans, former Ibrox star Gennaro Gattuso will be unable to take the field after being ruled out for a number of months with knee ligament damage.
Chief executive Martin Bain said: "We are delighted to announce AC Milan will be visiting Ibrox next February.
"With tickets going on sale this week, it is the ideal last-minute Christmas gift – and I know this match will really capture the imagination of our supporters.
"Milan are a club with a rich history and tradition like Rangers – and with players like David Beckham, Ronaldinho and Kaka set to feature, I am sure there will be phenomenal interest in the game."
Manager Walter Smith added: "AC Milan are one of the great European clubs, and our players will enjoy competing against the cream of Europe. It is an excellent match for our supporters, and I am sure they will turn out in huge numbers."
Captain Barry Ferguson is also looking forward to the match. "We are excited about it and it will be great for the young kids to see some of the superstars in football like Beckham, Kaka and Ronaldinho," said Ferguson.
