Baptista And Cassano To Be Included In Kaká Bid
-
Real Madrid are ready to throw Julio Baptista and Antonio Cassano into their record-braking bid to finally prise Kaká away from AC Milan after Bernd Schuster revealed his desire to sign the Brazilian.
The long-running saga shows no sign of letting up in the Spanish media as both Marca and AS predict that los Merengues will make one final offer to tempt the Italian club's hand.
Schuster revealed that Madrid have money to spend and would be prepared to throw all their eggs into one basket if meant signing Kaká.
"A few months ago the club were after Cristiano Ronaldo, then after Kaká and offered €80m for him. This option is still there," Schuster told German television.
"We have a big suitcase full of cash, and there will definitely be a player or two to come. But it's difficult to lure top players away from their clubs,"
Milan have repeatedly rebuffed Madrid's advances and have become infuriated with the Spanish press' coverage of the story, with AS in particular coming in for some stern words.
Now the rumours have resurfaced with the Spanish giants said to be preparing a €90m offer for the Brazilian superstar, along with two players.
Baptista has been linked to Milan without the prospect of being part of a swap deal, but he could now be thrown in as an added incentive.
Cassano may not be Milan's first choice striker, but Madrid are desperate to off-load the troublesome forward and hope that his added value will bolster their bid.
The Spanish giants' supremo, Ramón Calderón, promised to sign Kaká during the presidential elections last summer and has so far failed in his attempts. -

That's really crazy and Kaka would be really stupid if he joins Madrid.

Milan confirm Baptista interest
Milan have confirmed that they are interested in signing Real Madrid forward Julio Baptista.
Rossoneri boss Carlo Ancelotti is keen to bolster his attacking options and has made Baptista one of his top targets.
Baptista's future at Real looks uncertain after he spent last season on loan at Arsenal.
The burly forward is now back at El Santiago Bernabeu after failing to win a permanent move to Arsenal.
Milan and Real officials are thought to have met last week to discuss a possible deal for Baptista and the Italian's vice-president Adriano Galliani has admitted they would like to sign the Brazilian on loan with the option to make the move permanent.
"The situation is very clear, if Real are willing to let him leave on a loan deal with a buy-out option we can strike a deal," said Galliani.
"Otherwise we will make no changes and play with Clarence Seedorf, Kaka, Ronaldo, Pippo Inzaghi and Alberto Gilardino, which isn't bad at all."
Galliani also rejected rumours that Real were preparing a record-breaking offer for Kaka.
Real have been continually linked with the classy forward, but Galliani is adamant the player is going nowhere.
"Kaka? No Real official asked for him or included Baptista in an offer for him, they know that he cannot be bought and that we will keep him for at least four more years," added Galliani. -
Not $80 million lah... If convert to pounds, around $50+ million
-
80 million euro + 2 players
Milan might consider to sell him with such a massive offer -
I still don't think this is going to work. Milan will never sell Kaka, and Kaka doesn't want to leave either. I don't think Milan are interested in Cassano, and they have the money to buy Baptista.
