Beckham hopes Galaxy will not stop him playing for his country having just returning to the international fold.
"Travelling is not going to be a problem, because I will travel from anywhere to play for my country, so we will see," Beckham said.
"I haven't worked out schedules, but I am sure it can be done nearer the time.
"Everyone at LA Galaxy knows that I want to play for my country and I am sure they will do everything possible to make it possible for me to play for my country."
Beckham is expected to start in England's must-win Euro 2008 qualifier away to Estonia on Wednesday.
