Real Madrid had approached the player several times in the past but either Milan or Kaka had turned them down.

"Kaka was not available for transfer and he always said the same thing: that he did not want to leave AC Milan.

"I remember that after the last game with AC Milan in 2009, he went to play for Brazil and took just a backpack with him.

"I accompanied him to the Malpensa [Airport] and I remember him saying, 'See you here when I return.'

"Instead, AC Milan were forced to sell him to Real Madrid."
