David and Victoria Beckham were planning to buy the famous Castle Sforzesco in Milan according to reports, but they have been told they can’t.

Victoria’s plans were to invest in the castle and make it the family home, but still keep the museum open in order to make a financial return.

However, it seems that they have failed to win this bid on the gorgeous 15th century castle that now houses artworks by Michelangelo and Da Vinci.

The authorities have no intention of selling a piece of Italian heritage
, the castle being a national treasure.

Another product of the rumor mill is that Victoria had her heart set on buying an entire floor of the Armani Hotel, which is being built in the city, but in vain.

Beckham is currently on loan with the Rossoneri from Los Angeles Galaxy until the end of the season, but various reports have claimed he could be back in Milan in November when his deal with the MLS side expires.
