LOL there is no way Perez would sell him this soon after what he paid. Also, we have video evidence of Mou saying WTF would we sell Kaka when he'll be back in January, soooo.

http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=5441798

"Kaka is Kaka. There is only one Kaka. But we have van der Vaart who can play more or less in the same position, we have a young boy Canales which I believe will be a big surprise, even for me was a big surprise because I knew he was a good player but he is much better than I thought. We have Ronaldo that is quite comfortable playing behind the striker and not in the sides, so.. We have to find solutions, we cannot cry. We wait for Kaka, we hope we qualify in the Champion's League 'til December, and after that Kaka is to come on January and be with the team for the knockout phase with the Champions, and instead of buy a good player in January, we have Kaka for free."

"In reference to Kaka, all that matters is that the operation was a success. There are no more questions about his situation or his recovery. As the leader of a group, I cannot waste time crying over a player. I have other players counting on me. My philosophy doesn't allow me to have any doubts or to cry. I have no doubts regarding the quality of our medical staff. I will not speak about Kaka any further while he is out."

lol this clip is exactly what I thought about when I read the "news". I lol'ed. There's no way Kaka would go to Inter. Until he comes back, I think we can count on lots of loltastic transfer rumors. On that note, I'm so impatient, I can't wait till he comes back! I'm going to have a party (beerbeerbeer) when he does/his first game back :DDD.

Yeah, but Ibra had serious issues with Pep that Kaka does not have with Mou. Kaka def. doesn't want to go anywhere.

I really hope you're right. :D

Oh, and just to give some perspective, this was today's paper in Italy:

"Kakà tra Milan e Inter
Mou non lo vuole più
L'attaccante brasiliano non rientra più nei piani del tecnico portoghese e Galliani si starebbe muovendo per riportarlo a Milano. Ma anche l'Inter, nonostante le smentite di Moratti, lo segue. Buffon vicino al ManUtd"

"Kakà contended between Milan and Inter
Mou doesn't want him anymore
The Brasilian footballer has no place in Mourinho's plans and Galliani is allegedly reported to have gotten in touch with Real Madrid to try and bring him to Milan. But Inter is rumored to be interested as well, Moratti's statements notwithstanding. Buffon might go to Manchester United"

The article goes on to say Benzema too is speculated to be on the market, and Barça might be interested in Palermo's Javier Pastore.

Source is La Repubblica. (and please keep in mind that even though it's a serious newspaper when it comes down to sports they can be total asses LMAO)

Nothing's out of the realm of possibility, but I think it's wishful thinking on Italy's part, tbh. If Kaka was a difficult player or had a history of issues with coaches or presidents, etc, I would give it a lot more credibility, but Kaka is basically the easiest person to work with ever by all accounts. RM has done nothing but constantly update recovery status, projected return, post rehab photos, etc... And Mou is seldom that effusive in his praise ("Kaka is Kaka" channels "Cristiano is Cristiano," who he openly considers the best player in the world). That, plus Perez shelling out crazy money for him and raking in the shirt sales (Barca has the most fans/revenue in Europe, but RM has the most fans/revenue worldwide), makes me really dubious. Especially if the same article mentions Benzema, since we only have two strikers and Mou's opinion of him has improved drastically in the last few weeks. It just wouldn't make sense to me for Mou to suddenly want to sell Kaka and Benz NOW. Two months ago? Yeah, but he's since spoken out so positively on both of their behalves that there's a logic disconnect, IMO.

Yep, pretty much what you said, about Kaká being the easiest person to work with, I don't think I've ever heard of him clashing with another teammate/or with a coach.
Lol I forgot about shirt sales, there's that too.

And to be honest I like how RM fans still love Kaká so very much, and haven't start dissing him just cause he's injured. Some Italian fans should really learn from you! :D

(also yeah, I included the Benzema part to show how "believable" that piece of news was LMAO)

That's because Kaka's heart is made of rainbows.
