Spanish Report: Chelsea To Launch Kaka Bid


Following Brazil's exit from the World Cup, Chelsea will renew their interest in Real Madrid midfielder Kaka.

Kaka struggled at Real Madrid last season following his £56-million switch from AC Milan last summer. A troublesome thigh injury limited Kaka’s chances and the feeling at the Bernabeu is that he has yet to begin to pay back the hefty fee paid for him.

Reportedly, Kaka does not fancy his chances of regular first team football under new Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho, and the 28-year-old would apparently welcome a reunion with his former AC Milan boss Carlo Ancelotti at Chelsea. Under Ancelotti, Kaka enjoyed a highly successful spell at the San Siro, becoming one of the world's top players.

Spanish daily 'Sport' reports that Chelsea will make a move for the Brazilian, particularly as Stamford Bridge chief Roman Abramovich "has always had a fondness" for the player, having previously attempted to sign him during his AC Milan days.

Mourinho would reportedly not stand in the way of Kaka’s sale. Meanwhile, Bernabeu chief Florentino Perez would apparently welcome a bid for from a club like Chelsea who has the means to enable him to recoup some of the fee paid out for Kaka last summer.
