Kaka close to Milan return

Milan are set to reignite their interest in Real Madrid playmaker Kaka, Spanish newspaper AS reports.

The Rossoneri attempted to sign their former player few months back, but were forced to pull out because of the player’s wage demands.

Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani admitted few weeks back that the Rossoneri weren’t able to afford Kaka’s salary, but the situation has changed a great deal since.

With Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva set to complete a move to Paris Saint-Germain, the Rossoneri could save around €150 million in the space of two years.

The improved financial situation means they are likely to resurrect the Kaka deal and initial talks are expected to take place in the coming days.

This is a perfect scenario for Real Madrid, who are hoping to cash in on the Brazilian and at the same time make way for the arrival of Luka Modric from Tottenham.

Given that all three parties would profit from the deal, the odds are that Kaka will return to San Siro before the summer transfer window is over.
