Kaka wants to stay at Milan despite Chelsea and Real Madrid interest
The Brazilian playmaker is also a target of Real Madrid's newly elected president, Florentino Perez, who, despite denying that negotiations have begun, has made clear his intentions to lure the 27-year-old to the Bernabeu. [LNB]But Kaka, who admits he is indebted to Ancelotti for the opportunities he gave him in Italian football, insists he is going nowhere.

In this period I prefer to stay quiet because I don't want to be misinterpreted," he said. [LNB]"To the millions of Rossoneri [AC Milan] fans I say my decision has been made. I have said I want to stay. Now please leave me in peace. [LNB]"Thank God we qualified for the Champions League. We missed it and I missed it. I want to keep winning with Milan. I'm staying at Milan. And as of today, this case is over."[LNB]His comments will go a long way to reassure Milan director Adriano Galliani who earlier this week admitted the club was incapable of competing with the finances and salary offers of other Europeans clubs. [LNB]"If we continue like this, we will become a small league," Galliani said. "We have had requests for Kaka and Pato from two of Europe's biggest clubs and we will try and resist them. [LNB]"But there is an uneven playing field. Today, Barcelona and Real Madrid have an income which is double that of ours."[LNB]Earlier this year Kaka was the subject of a £108m bid from Manchester City but the deal collapsed after Milan pulled out of negotiations.[LNB]This failure to sign the 2007 Fifa Player of the Year should be a lesson to other clubs trying to sign him, says Kaka's team mate Ganarro Gattuso. [LNB]Dispelling rumours that Kaka would move or that Ancelotti will try and lure members of his former squad to Chelsea, Gattuso said: "I don't think he'd [Ancelotti] try to break up a Milan team that he cares about and has such a good relationship with. [LNB]"There will always be reports about Kaka because he is one of the greatest in the world but I think the English clubs got their answer about Kaka in January - and the answer will still be the same."[LNB]
