First RVP, now Kaka? Man United offered Brazil legend in shock loan deal from Real Madrid

Kaka has been offered to Manchester United on a season-long loan as Real Madrid prepare for the arrival of Luka Modric.

Galatasaray and Kaka’s former club AC Milan have also registered their interest in the 2007 World Player of the Year, but United are the biggest draw for the Brazilian.

Sir Alex Ferguson is giving the 30-year-old serious consideration but has fears about his form and fitness after so many injuries.

Benched: Kaka has struggled to impress at Real Madrid

 

United, who could have Robin van Persie on the bench at Everton on Monday, have signed left back Alexander Buttner, 23, for £3.9million from Vitesse Arnhem. They go to Goodison Park without Rio Ferdinand, who has a groin injury.

Ferguson is considering selling Dimitar Berbatov to Sunderland but has decided not to offload anyone else.

Kaka was an unused substitute on Sunday night as Real were held 1-1 by Valencia in their opening game. He has also lost his place in the Brazil squad.

Xabi Alonso, Lassana Diarra, Angel de Maria and Mesut Ozil all started. Germany midfielder Sami Khedira, who was also on the bench, is further competition and the £30m arrival of Modric from Spurs will push Kaka even further down the queue.

England bound? Kaka (left) could be set to join Manchester United

The Brazilian’s salary is close to the £250,000 a week earned by Van Persie and Wayne Rooney and, although Real are reluctant to let Kaka join a Champions League rival, his wages are a burden considering he will spend most of the season on the bench at the Bernabeu.

Kaka has struggled with injury since he joined Real for a then world record £60m in 2009 after six successful years with AC Milan. But he still managed to make 27 appearances in last season’s La Liga triumph.

Buttner was thrilled to have completed a rapid move to Old Trafford — Kaka or not. He said: ‘If you had told me one week ago that I would be training with and playing for the same team as Robin van Persie, I would have sent you to a mental home!

Done deal: Alexander Buttner has joined United from Vitesse

'This is crazy stuff, beyond all my dreams. I am looking forward to this challenge so much. I am so proud and so glad that it has worked out like this.

‘I’m so glad that it has happened and everything has turned out like this. This is really a dream come true.’

Meanwhile, Darren Fletcher played 90 minutes as an overaged player for United’s Under 21 squad against Stoke on Saturday.

Champions City set sights on £30m Roma hard man De Rossi after Aguero injury

Manchester City are ready to ramp up their bid to sign Roma midfielder Daniele De Rossi with Sergio Aguero set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines.

Aguero was sent for a scan on knee after going down injured during City's opening day 
 3-2 win at home over newly-promoted Southampton.

Top target: City want to sign Daniele De Rossi

The Argentine striker was pictured wearing a protective brace on his leg and could be out for several weeks.

But to ease the blow, boss Roberto Mancini remains hopeful of prising Italy international De Rossi, with reports in Italy claiming the 29-year-old hard man is set to move to the Etihad Stadium for around £30million.

Roma boss Zdenek Zeman insists he is confident that De Rossi, who only signed a new contract at the Stadio Olimpico in February, will stay at the Serie A club.

'I am convinced that De Rossi stays with us,' said Zemen, speaking to Sky Sports.

Untouchable: Roma fans unfurl a banner that reads 'De Rossi is untouchable' as boss Zdenek Zemen insists he will not leave

'He is very important for us and the club has not asked me anything about him. I think he will remain.
'Has Mancini have ever called me? Several times, even when I was at Pescara last year. The last time I heard from him was three weeks ago.'

Man of the moment: De Rossi scored for Italy last week in their 2-1 defeat to England

 

Mancini has been largely frustrated by City's relatively quiet summer spending spree, with the Italian only adding £12million Jack Rodwell to his squad.
He was frustrated by the club's failure to sign Robin van Persie from Arsenal, watching the Dutchman join rivals Man United instead, but hopes he can finally lure long-term target De Rossi before the transfer window slams shut.
