Milan: 'Chelsea's mega move for Kaka is a hoax'

AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani has strongly denied that his club has received an offer from Chelsea for Brazilian midfielder Kaka.

Reports in England claimed FIFA's World Player of the Year nominee could be on the move to the Premier League outfit in a £100m deal.

But when asked about Kaka's link to Chelsea, Galliani said after a press conference with club sponsors on Monday: "Chelsea's mega offer is a hoax.

"No team has asked for him (Kaka) with the exception of Real Madrid and when they did, we kindly responded that the player is not for sale."

Kaka, whose 10 goals made him the top scorer in last season's Champions League, had been Madrid's top target this summer but the Rossoneri have reiterated they have no intention of letting him leave the club.

"He (Kaka) will respect his contract until June 2011," said Galliani.
