Leonardo - "Pato extraordinary"

More from Leonardo, this time on Carlo Ancelotti: 'Concerning Carlo Ancelotti I think everything is extremely clear. The coach has a contract until 2010.

The relationship with Milan is public, in the sense that everyone knows how much understanding there is between him and the club. The plan is clear for everyone: reaching the Champions League.'

Leonardo also talked about Pato: 'When he starts running no one can stop him. At this time, at his age, his quality is his spontaneity and his way of behaving on the pitch without thinking too much. If he manages to keep these gifts, with more experience and concreteness, he will become an even more extraordinary player.'

Leonardo - Kaka want to stayed

The second part of 'Segni Particolari' saw Leonardo as a guest, after the recent media frenzy surrounding him: 'Everything happened on the outside and not inside the team. It was interesting to be a media figure. It's incredibly how fast media come up with ideas, more than news...'.

On Kaká: 'Ricky showed many times he want to stay at Milan, most famously when he turned down a move to Manchester City in January. The night when he decided to stay was wonderful.

I was with him and I saw the people's commotion. It was a great party. Ricky always reiterated his will to stay."

Kaladze - Kaka and Ancelotti will stayed

Milan defender Kakha Kaladze is confident that Kaka won't walk out on the Diavolo.

Spanish newspaper Marca is adamant that the Brazilian will be at the Bernabeu next season.

But Kaka has stressed his commitment to the Milan cause and Kaladze believes his teammate.

“It is a normal occurrence that a great player is linked with many teams,” Kaladze told the club's official website.

“Everyone is talking about Real Madrid, but I think these stories are just made up to sell newspapers.

“Look at what happened with Manchester City when Kaka turned down all that money.

“It's not just about money - he showed such moral fibre to turn down the cash and I respect him for that.”

Coach Carlo Ancelotti has also been linked with Real Madrid, as well as Chelsea.

“Ancelotti is a great Coach and he has done so much for Milan. I don't think his cycle has finished,” Kaladze concluded.

Ancelotti say yes to Chelsea

Milan tactician Carlo Ancelotti has given the green light for a move to Chelsea, according to The Sun.

There have been incessant rumours linking Ancelotti to the Stamford Bridge hot seat since the departure of Luiz Felipe Scolari.

Despite Carletto's insistence that he wants to stay at San Siro, he has been linked with Real Madrid as well as Chelsea over the last month.

And according to The Sun, Ancelotti has promised Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich that he will join the Blues next summer.

The report states that Ancelotti was first choice when Scolari left but was unwilling to walk away from the Rossoneri in mid-season.

It is rumoured that Ancelotti will sign a three-year deal worth around £5.8m per season.

Kaka - "Milan is my life"

A weary Kaka has once again stressed his commitment to the Milan cause while admitting he still hasn't completely overcome his injury problems.

The Brazilian ace is repeatedly being linked with a big-money move to Real Madrid this summer.

But, despite insistent reports in the Spanish Press, Kaka claims he has no intention of jumping ship.

“I think people have talked too much recently,” he told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

“Now I will talk. I have had no contact with Real - nobody has come after me and I think I have made it perfectly clear that I am happy here.

“For the fifth time, I am Milan for life. I have already had more lives than a cat.”

It hasn't been the best of seasons for Kaka, who has been sidelined with persistent injuries.

“I have had lots of problems,” he admitted. “I've had injuries to my knee, my back and my foot.

“I have never been able to play consistently and I'm not even 100 per cent now.

“I am hoping to get to full fitness before the end of the season and to give Milan a push to ensure we finish in the Champions League qualification places.”

Galliani laughed Kaka amusing talk

Milan Vice-President Adriano Galliani laughed off “amusing” talk of Kaka leaving for Real Madrid or Chelsea.

“Every morning I read some fantastical stories in the papers and some of it is very amusing,” said the transfer guru.

“The reality though, let us be clear, is very different. The truth is there are no negotiations for the sale of Ricardo Kaka.

“Seeing as we’re here, I may as well point out for future reference that there are no talks for any other players under contract in our squad either.”

The newspapers in Spain and England have been filled with details of potential switches to either Real Madrid or Chelsea.

Kaka turned down a record-shattering £100m move to Manchester City in January.

Galliani also scoffed at reports Milan are looking to bring in Cagliari boss Massimiliano Allegri as a replacement for Carlo Ancelotti next season.

“Milan have never contacted any other Coach, as we already have Ancelotti tied to the club until June 30 2010.”

AC Milan Vs Barcelona friendly match for earthquake victims

The calcio community continues to raise funds for the victims of the earthquake in Abruzzo as Milan are trying organise a friendly against Barcelona.

The Lega Calcio, Fiorentina, Catania and Napoli have all committed funds to the appeal for the quake victims.

And now, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Barcelona have contacted Milan to suggest a charity friendly match.

“I phoned my friend Milan Vice-President Adriano Galliani to propose a friendly to raise money for the families affected by the tragedy,” Barcelona chief Joan Laporta confirmed to journalists.

So far, 250 people are confirmed to have been killed in the earthquake that hit L'Aquila early on Monday morning.

Kaka - "I like Premier League a lot"

Milan superstar Kaka has distanced himself from Real Madrid by saying that he would rather play in the Premier League than La Liga.

The Brazilian playmaker has been tipped for a summer switch to the Bernabeu by the Spanish Press.

But Kaka, who turned down an offer from Manchester City in the winter, claims he would rather play in England.

“I like the Premier League a lot,” he told the Daily Star. “That could be where I go if I were to decide to leave Milan.

“Whenever possible I try to discuss experiences in different Leagues with my fellow players.

“And every player who has played in England has told me the same thing - it is a hard League, which is very hard and extremely competitive.”

Laporta would be happier if Kaka stayed

Barcelona chief Joan Laporta claims that Kaka would be better off staying at Milan rather than joining Real Madrid.

There are persistent reports in the Spanish Press that Kaka will sign for La Liga giants Real Madrid this summer.

But the President of Real's rivals Barcelona has urged the Brazilian ace to stay at San Siro.

“I would be happier if Kaka stayed at Milan,” Laporta told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

“He is a world-class player who would do well anywhere, but I would advise him not to leave Milan because they are a great club.”

Former Barcelona tactician Frank Rijkaard has been tipped to take over the Milan hot seat this summer if Carlo Ancelotti leaves.

“Frank is one of the best Coaches in the world,” Laporta stressed.

“He would do great things at any club, especially at his former side Milan.

“Severing our ties with him was the hardest decision I have made during my tenure and I almost cried when we said our goodbyes.”

Allegri linked with the Milan

Cagliari boss Massimiliano Allegri is being linked with the Milan hot seat in the event that Carlo Ancelotti leaves this summer.

Ancelotti is a targeted for Chelsea, who are looking for a permanent manager once Guus Hiddink leaves, and also for Real Madrid.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Carletto has a 70 per cent chance of joining Chelsea, leaving 20 per cent for Real Madrid and just 10 per cent for Milan.

Although Ancelotti has stressed his commitment to his current employers, it seems that Milan may be lining up his successor.

Allegri has enjoyed a dream maiden Serie A season at the Stadio Sant'Elia.

After a miserable start that saw five consecutive defeats, Allegri has turned things around, securing survival ahead of schedule and leaving the Rossoblu pushing for a UEFA Cup berth.

The Sardinians' President Massimo Cellino has reportedly told Allegri that he won't stand in the way of a move to Milan and La Gazzetta dello Sport insists that a crucial meeting between the two clubs took place on March 23.

Shirt no 5 and £9m per season for Kaka?

The latest Spanish Press reports suggest that Kaka wants nearly £9m per season to sign for Real Madrid.

Despite Milan Vice-President Adriano Galliani's insistence that prized asset Kaka is staying put, the Spanish newspapers are convinced that the former FIFA World Player of the Year is on his way to La Liga.

Marca yesterday ran a fake picture of Kaka with a Real Madrid No 5 shirt and claimed he had agreed a move with presidential candidate Florentino Perez.

And now AS reports that Kaka's father and agent Bosco Leite has presented the player's financial demands, which amount to nearly £12m per season - a net salary of £9m.

That sum represents £3m more than Kaka currently makes at Milan and Bosco has allegedly also demanded a payment of £8m as commission for the transfer.

It had been reported that Milan would accept a bid of £60m, but AS also insists the fee would be closer to £80m.

Ronaldinho have sixth sense?

Ronaldinho insists he “could sense” he would score a crucial goal when he stepped off the bench against Lecce.

Milan were stuck fast to a goalless scoreline in stoppages on Sunday night when Philippe Senderos headed Andrea Pirlo’s free kick on to the back of Dinho’s head, the deflection leaving the goalkeeper stranded.

“I was pretty motivated and really wanted Milan to go home with a victory,” he wrote on his ronaldinhogaucho.com blog after what turned out to be a 2-0 win.

“When I went out on the field - I can’t explain it, but I was sure I could help the team make it. I could sense it.

“I ran towards the ball, a little off balance, I leaned my head, stretching out for the ball, which changed its trajectory and ended up going out of the goalkeeper’s reach. Goooaaal! What a joy!”

Ronaldinho was also involved in the second goal moments later, his backheel flick sending Andriy Shevchenko down the left channel to cross for Pippo Inzaghi’s diving header.

“The night ended exactly how I wanted and my return to Milan couldn't have been better!"
