The Brazilian confirmed last week that he would be willing to take a pay-cut to move back to San Siro, having left the Rossoneri for the Spanish capital in 2009.
Galliani soon confirmed that the club had entered talks with the Spanish champions over a move for the player, but has now said that financial problems have put paid to the deal.
"The negotiations for Kaka have broken down," he told reporters. "It's not possible to complete the deal for fiscal reasons.
"We had agreed on everything else, but the deal broke down about an hour ago."
It is understood that the potential move collapsed because Milan failed to persuade the Santiago Bernabeu outfit to consider a loan deal for Kaka's services.
The 30-year-old has found form and first-team opportunities hard to come by at Madrid, and has only made seven Liga appearances this season, scoring in none of them.
His first spell at San Siro was between 2003 and 2009. During his time there, he won one Scudetto and one Champions League title.
The Milan CEO also commented to Sky Sports 24 on other players linked with the San Siro outfit, including Mario Balotelli and David Beckham.
A reporter - in possession of Panini stickers representing Kaka, Beckham and Balotelli - asked which player would be signed by the club before the end of the transfer window, to which Galliani said: "None of them."

GOOOOOOAAAAAAAALLLLLL!!!!!!!! BAYERN MAKE THE BREAKTHROUGH!!! Just moments after heading a Javi Martinez flick-on straight at Neuer, Mandzukic fully vindicates his selection in the Bayern starting line-up ahead of Mario Gomez (as if his superior work-rate wasn't reason enough alone!) by being on hand to convert a cut-back from Robben. A simple goal for the Croat - but an absolutely massive one. Just how will Dortmund react to having gone behind?

Franz Beckenbauer is never one to mince his words and he's been disappointed - yet not in the least bit surprised - by Arjen Robben's finishing tonight.
"It just seems like Arjen Robben can't score in decicive matches," the legendary libero told Sky Germany during the break.

The latest from the Bayern bench is that centre-half Jerome Boateng is struggling with a slightly bruised thigh. He's keen to play on, but that's obviously one to watch. Should he be forced off, one imagines Van Buyten will come on in his place.

The second half is just under way, but just to give you the thoughts of three-time World Referee Of The Year Markus Merk, who is working the game for Sky Germany tonight. He feels that Ribery's elbow on Lewandowski during the first half could easily have been construed as deliberate by match official Nicola Rizzoli.
"Ribery was very lucky," he argued. "If the referee judges this as an intentional act, he can easily give a red card. I cannot understand why a player like Franck Ribery behaves like this in a Champions League final."
