Chelsea '90 per cent' certain to land Real Madrid star Kaka as Brazilian eyes Carlo Ancelotti reunion

Kaka is '90 per cent' certain to join Chelsea if he cannot revive his Real Madrid career - according to a close ally of Bernabeu president Florentino Perez.

Inter Milan have been strongly linked with a move for the Brazil playmaker following the appointment of his compatriot Leonardo as Rafa Benitez’s replacement.

However, Italian super agent Ernesto Bronzetti insists that Stamford Bridge is the only likely destination for a player who has long been admired by Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich.

The Blues' own spending power has been questioned, but Bronzetti insists Inter are in an even weaker position to fork out for the 28-year-old.

'Kaka will not join Inter - I am sure of it,' said Bronzetti, who has done business with Madrid money man Perez for 10 years. ‘Inter will not make these types of investments. Kaka cost €70m (£56million) and now they won't demand under €50m (£43m).’

Bronzetti would be surprised if Kaka went anywhere at all given the effort that Perez put in to make him his first signing - from AC Milan - after being re-elected as president back in June 2009.

But the one-time World Player of the Year, close to a return after knee surgery in the summer, could struggle to get into Jose Mourinho’s side after the arrival of Mesut Ozil from Werder Bremen.

‘I am the only Italian to know Florentino Perez very well,’ said the agent. ‘We are bound by a 10-year friendship. I talked with him a few days ago.

‘Florentino is a bit stubborn and he would not accept losing a bet (on Kaka), it’s the same for Maicon and (Diego) Milito, who will not go to Madrid.’

But if a move was inevitable? ‘(Inter) have a ruthless competitor called Chelsea. If he were to leave in June, he has a 90 per cent chance of going to Chelsea and not Inter.’
