Galliani: Kaka Not Moving From Milan

• Press Association, Friday, January 23, 2009 1 PM

AC Milan vice president Adriano Galliani has said that Brazilian playmaker Kaka will not leave for Real Madrid or any other club at the end of the season. The player turned down a $150 million move to Manchester City this week, but Spanish media reports have linked him with a move to La Liga's reigning champion.

"Kaka forever," Galliani told the Italian press. "He will not move, he will remain here for the next four and a half years or for longer." Madrid has long been linked with a move for Kaka. With former club president Florentino Perez expected to return to the club to replace newly resigned Ramon Calderon, speculation has resurfaced of a bid for the forward.

"If Perez was to ask me about Kaka I would say no to him as well," said Galliani, who said Milan just wants to forget the the whole Kaka saga and move on. "I don't want to talk anymore about Kaka's situation. All's well that ends well. After this situation, I reiterate that Kaka will not move." Kaka's Milan contract runs until June 2013.
