Kaka ´wants to play at Real, says Beckham´

Brazilian midfielder Kaka, who rejected a record-breaking transfer from Manchester City, wants to play at Real Madrid next season, his AC Milan teammate David Beckham was quoted as saying Tuesday.

“Kaka wants to go to Real Madrid and not to City. I think he will become a Real player in June. I think someone has called him and that Kaka has made his decision,” the former England captain told a friend recently, according to Spanish sports daily AS.

The paper said last week Kaka asked Beckham, who played for Real between 2003 and 2007, for information about the defending Spanish giants, the paper added.

Former Real president Ramon Calderon, who stepped down on Friday over allegations that he rigged voting at the club’s last annual general assembly, promised to sign Kaka during his successful campaign to lead the club.

Real remains interested in signing the 26-year-old, according to AS.

“This is the best moment to recruit Kaka, he is the player who would benefit the team the most,” an unnamed Real source told the newspaper.

Italian prime minister and AC Milan president Silvio Berlusconi said late Monday that Kaka had decided to stay with the Italian side, having rejected a bid from City that was said to be of 100 million pounds (111 million euros/147 million US dollars).

Kaka is under contract with Milan through 2013.

    I’ve always believed that Kaka is more suited to the Real Madrid sort of play. He’s have been the most fitting successor to Zizou. However if you look at the trend, it would indicate a return to the Galactico era. With Lassana being the Makelele and Kaka the Zizou. Ronaldo, if he joined would be the Figo. The missing link would be the Ronaldo because it would be sacrilege to compare Huntelaar to El Phenomenon.

    And that talk of age is cobblers. He is still not 27 and that indicates a possible 10 more years at the top. Besides, Kaka brings back the traditional footballer’s mind that is not motivated by money. There is more to football than the pockets. There are fans to think about, love for a team and the lot. Kaka epitomises that.

    I think it would be tomfoolery for Los Blancos to miss this oportunity. There is a real need for an overhaul there. What with players like Faubert? Drenthe? Torres? El Merengues are trendsetters in Spain and in Europe. Those standards need to be maintained. How can we now be talking about Champions League without Madrid. Have we already forgotten the wonder goal (Zizou against Leverkusen)? Vamos!!!
