BRAZILIAN superstar Kaka has insisted he wants to “grow old” at AC Milan - despite City's sensational £100million move for the player.

His statement is being widely accepted as a rejection of City’s audacious approach for the former world footballer of the year. City were believed to be prepared to pay £500,000-a-week to the 24-year-old.

“I want to grow old at milan,” Kaka told Italian TV station MediaSet, owned by AC Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi.

“My aim is to become, at some point in the future, the captain of this team.

“I know there is a pecking order, with (Paolo) Maldini at the front at then (Massimo) Ambrosini, but after that...

“I have already turned down some major offers.”

Earlier, Kaka's spokesman Diogo Kotscho said he could not rule out the midfield maestro moving to City in the current transfer window.

“It’s not impossible,” Kotscho told Sky Sports. “But I think it will be very, very difficult to have a deal with Milan.”

As reported in Monday’s MEN Sport, the Blues have made the Brazilian their number one Galactico target.

The Abu Dhabi Prince sees the move as the perfect way of showing fans that he intends to keep his promise to turn the Blues into a superpower in the coming seasons.

Earlier this week Milan were still laughing off suggestions that they had received a bid for Kaka and the player himself was happily discussing playing alongside David Beckham for the next couple of months.

Kaka though has always been at the top of an exclusive and separate wanted ‘Galactico’ list that has also was approved by manager Mark Hughes and now it has emerged that the Blues made their move on Monday evening.

Details

On Tuesday night, Milan owner and Italy’s Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi,  gave authorisation for details of that meeting to appear on the official website of his media group. If Kaka agrees to come to City, the Serie A side will use the cash windfall to rebuild an ageing side.

Milan then said they had taken ‘official notice’ of City’s offer.

“This time they are here for real with an official delegation," said the report.

“City want Kaka at all costs and they have shown their cards. Garry Cook, two representatives of Sheik Mansour and Kia Joorabchian, who is acting as a mediator, met with Adriano Galliani and Ernesto Bronzetti (Milan’s chief executive and commercial director) and made their offer.”

The Blues have yet to speak to Kaka but his countryman and friend Robinho has told friends in Manchester that he had been told of City’s desire to have the two in the same side.

There has been no official comment from City.
