Manchester United have reportedly opened talks with Kaka over a summer transfer to Old Trafford.
According to The Sun, club officials met with Kaka yesterday.
A source 'close to the AC Milan superstar' is quoted as saying:
"It was a very positive meeting, although nothing was agreed.
"The player wants a five-year contract and wages of £135,000 a week. He is very keen to join United and these are figures that are within United's pay structure. It's up to them what happens now."
As Manchester City are understood to have offered over £100m for the Milan forward in January, United are expected to have to pay at least £70m if they are to persuade the Italians to sell their prized asset.
United's interest in Kaka will inevitably be interpreted as an indication that they are preparing to sell Cristiano Ronaldo in the summer to Real Madrid.
A concurring Daily Mail also has United's pursuit of Kaka on their backpage, with the Mail declaring that 'intermediaries of the Premier League champions will meet Milan over the next 10 days to discuss figures and the possibility of luring the brilliant Brazilian playmaker to Old Trafford.'
