AC Milan president Silvio Berlusconi has told Real Madrid that £40 million isn't enough to land midfielder Kaka.
 
Real supremo Ramon Calderon has put the cash bid on the table, but Berlusconi has told his counterpart the offer is short of their valuation.

Kaka is keen to see the matter settled before August 1, which is when he is due to return to Milan for preseason training. For now, he is monitoring developments while on holiday in the USA, but his representatives admit the situation is damaging his image with Milan fans.

"We do not know if everything is going to be finalised shortly or if the subject is going to go on for longer," Kaka's agent, Diogo Kotscho, told AS.

"What we continue knowing very clearly is that Kaka will not rebel. Everything that is happening is not good for his image."
