EXCLUSIVE: Kaka in Manchester; Ronaldo Speculation a Smokescreen
Kaka's projected move to Manchester United from AC Milan gathered further momentum when it was revealed that the real reasons behind his exclusion from the Brazilian squad was not due to injury but because he will be in Manchester over the next few days finalizing personal terms with the European Champions.
Dunga, the Brazilian coach, has excluded Kaka from the Brazilian squad for upcoming World Cup qualifying games against Paraguay and Argentina. The Rossoneri star is reportedly recovering from having arthroscopic knee surgery in Rio de Janeiro on May 23.
"We decided to spare the player, who is recovering," Dunga said. "His participation in those two games would be premature."
However insider sources in the Brazilian camp reveal that the real reason behind Kaka's exclusion was that he will be in Manchester over the next few days finalising personal terms and would miss the first Brazilian training session which has angered Brazilian coach Dunga.
This news will no doubt anger a Milan board whose hands are already full trying to negotiate a deal with UEFA that will allow them to participate in next seasons Champions League.
Meanwhile insiders at United are still confident that Ronaldo will be staying at United for many years to come. In fact a source close to Old Trafford says that Ronaldo has been instructed to create this transfer speculation as Sir Alex Ferguson wants to use it as a smokescreen in his attempts to sign Kaka. "Basically Ronnie has been told to create the Madrid stories and feed the media because it will divert the attention away from our projected move. Sir Alex knows it's difficult for United fans but is confident signing Kaka will be more than make up for it.", the insider revealed.
And the move seems to have worked with very few media sites picking up the story but that will all change over the next few days.
