Chelsea are set to swoop for AC Milan’s Brazilian international Kaka, the player’s personal assistant Diogo Kotscho claimed on Sunday.

Reports suggest a 100 million euro (150 million dollar) deal could be brokered before the closure of the transfer window at the end of the month.

And Kotscho told The Observer: “I spoke with Kaka yesterday (Saturday). We know that the clubs are talking about the transfer, although they have not reached a conclusion yet.

“I think an August transfer is still a possibility, though Kaka will only talk about that when they do a deal.

“He is waiting for a deal and then he will start to negotiate with Chelsea.

“Normally, Milan do not sell their best players. We think they like the proposal, but it is not so easy for them to accept it.

“For now we must just wait and see.”

The Brazilian has been linked with the Premier League outfit following the appointment of compatriot Luiz Felipe Scolari as manager.

Kaka, who is under contract at the San Siro until 2012, is said to be unhappy over Milan’s refusal to allow him to represent his country at the Olympic Games in Beijing.
