Manchester City are reported to be in Italy to talk over a mega bid for AC Milan ace Kaka.
Sky Sports News have reported that City officials have spent Tuesday in the Italian city and plan to hold preliminary talks for a player who would break the British transfer record if he moved to Eastlands.
However, earlier in the day, AC Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi played down speculation of a move to Manchester City.
The talismanic Brazilian has been linked with a switch to Eastlands ever since the Abu Dhabi United Group took control at City and immediately made bold exclamations with regards transfer policy.
City's sensational capture of Robinho under the nose of Chelsea proved Mark Hughes' side have the spending power to entice world class talent, but Berlusconi insists Kaka is not for sale.
"I know nothing about a Manchester City offer for Kaka," said Berlusconi.
"I think he's not transferable and given that is the case, he will stay at Milan."
In November the 26-year-old admitted he was flattered by City's reported interest, while at the same time accepting a Milan exit would be difficult.
