Kaká To Real Madrid Rumours Continue In Spain

Kaká to Real Madrid has now become daily front page news in the Spanish sports press with Marca stating that he should be bought now, while AS believe his silence means a lot.

The Brazilian superstar may have turned down Manchester City and pledged his immediate future to AC Milan, however, he is just waiting for the Spanish giants to make their move, both papers believe.

Florentino Pérez has yet to confirm if he will use Kaká as the tool to reinstall him as president at the Santiago Bernabéu and, if he does, then the coverage will move into over-drive.

For now, Marca are content with telling the world that Madrid should move now because the player could be bought for a mere €80 million, while in the summer he will command €20m more.

AS were not to be outdone asking the Milan officials directly about the possibility of Kaka moving to Spain as they boarded a flight to Hanover.

"I cannot talk about the transfer market or about Real Madrid now," Milan's vice-president Adriano Galliani told reporters.

Both papers agree that Milan's willingness to sell Kaká to Manchester City has upset the superstar and created cracks in his relationship with the hierarchy at the club.

Madrid have a platform that he would, of course, be willing to step across to and it will now come down to what kind of deal Milan will accept - at least in the Spanish media's eyes.
