DAVID BECKHAM landed his dream Champions League draw yesterday as AC Milan were paired with his former club Manchester United.
And, in another twist, Jose Mourinho's Inter Milan take on his old side Chelsea.
Becks had been praying for a return to Old Trafford.
He said: "Me against Manchester, it would be beautiful, wouldn't it?"
Beckham, 34, begins his second loan spell with Milan next month.
And the LA Galaxy ace will relish the chance to tackle Alex Ferguson's men in the last 16 - with the second leg at the Theatre of Dreams.
Speaking prior to the draw, Becks added: "Since I left in 2003, I have not returned to play at Old Trafford.
"Seven years have gone and I would like for that to happen."
Meanwhile, Arsenal have been handed a crunch tie with FC Porto.
The first-leg fixtures are spread between February 16-17 and 23-24, with the returns on March 9-10 and 16-17.
