Despite Silvio Berlusconi's assurances, there are reports that Manchester City have sent their chief executive to Italy to discuss a bid for Kaka.
The Citizens have been tracking Kaka for months and there have been regular rumours linking the wealthy Premier League side with a big-money move.
While Milan patron Berlusconi declared yesterday that Kaka won't be leaving San Siro, there are reports from Sky Sports News that City chief executive Garry Cook has travelled to Milan to begin transfer talks.
Milan have fended off advances from Real Madrid and Chelsea in recent times, but there are suggestions in La Gazzetta dello Sport that City would be able to bid around £90m.
FIFA World Player of the Year 2007 Kaka has always stressed his desire to stay with Milan, but Brazilian national side teammate Robinho has called him to Eastlands.
City's contract offer is also said to be in excess of £9m per season, which would make Kaka the highest earner in world football.
