Brazil and Milan ace Kaka was the latest big name to be linked with a mega move this week as the elite clubs continue to test each other's resolve in the summer transfer market.Big-spenders Chelsea reportedly sought to lure the Rossoneri's star man to the Premiership, just after the Serie A side linked him up with his countryman Ronaldinho.
A €100m bid has been mentioned and subsequently went some way to unsettling the midfield maestro.
The 26-year-old went on to claim that there were in fact two clubs after his services, with his apparent advisor, Diogo Kotscho, adding that, although Real Madrid had failed to land the player last year, a move to London was more likely.
However, Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani has confirmed that, although Chelsea have laid their credit cards on the table, bigwig Silvio Berlusconi hasn't taken the rather expensive bait.
“Chelsea want Kaka?” Galliani cheekily asked eager reporters on Saturday. “It's true - they have made a conspicuous offer - but I won't tell you how much it is.
Adding that his boss has a backbone of steel, Galliani continued: "President Berlusconi basically says no to Kaka [leaving], just as he did when Real Madrid wanted [Andrei] Shevchenko in 2001.
“Even Clarence Seedorf is staying here; the fans can sleep easy.”
