According to the Corriere dello Sport, AC Milan Chief Executive Adriano Galliani will first try to carry out the negotiation for Montpellier defender Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa and then will fly to the United States to talk with Real Madrid about 30 year old forward Ricardo Kakà. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, for the 19 year old the Ligue 1 champs require between 25 and 30 million euros, while Il Giornale substains that the Lombard club is trying to obtain the Brazil national on loan and with half of his salary paid by the merengues. According to the Corriere dello Sport, to replace Didac Vilà and Taye Taiwo, Milan are thinking about Napoli left back Andrea Dossena, but the Italian League Cup winner will let the 30 year old leave only if they will find a substitute, like Palermo 30 year old Federico Balzaretti. 

Real Madrid are keen on Tottenham midfielder Luka Modric, but if they will fail in signing the Croatia national, the merengues, according to El Mundo Deportivo, could make an attempt for Inter Milan 28 year old Wesley Sneijder, although the Holland national has recently declared that he wants to remain in Milan.
