Kaka Has Already Signed With Real Madrid, Smiles Zinedine Zidane

The club's new official has claimed that Kaka's future has already been decided - after a fashion, at least...

Real Madrid's advisor to president Florentino Perez, former France international Zinedine Zidane, has claimed that AC Milan's Brazilian star Kaka has already penned a deal with the Primera Division giants.

However, the manner in which he did so was most unusual.

"Kaka has already signed for Madrid, no?" he said during a press conference in Rome, that was in honour of former Giallorossi defender Vincent Candela's farewell match, according to El Mundo Deportivo.

A number of sources over the past couple of days have been adamant that Kaka was on the verge of joining los Blancos, but Zidane looked as though he was about to become the first to confirm the deal.

"I will be happy if he takes my No. 5, I will not be jealous," he joked.

However, he seemed to track back a bit from his original claim as he continued to smile along with the gathered press, following up his statement with an addition to the journalists: "Well, you tell me!"

Milan fans have been protesting the move in front of the club's headquarters on via Turati and they will no doubt continue as they look set to lose their star player.

Kaka would be the first signing of the newly elected Florentino Perez, who has promised big signings as he wishes to restore the Merengues to former glories.

Kaka joined Milan in 2003 and was influential in the club's 2004 Scudetto and 2007 Champions League victories, also winning the Ballon d'Or during that period.
