Thursday, May 8 2008 -- AC Milan star Kaka has told Sky Italia that if there is one player in the world whom he would like to draft into the Milan unit, it would be.....

Not Ronaldinho but Lionel Messi. The 20-year old Argentine wonderkid is supposedly the most talented player to emerged into the world of football since Diego Armando Maradona and has been the main Barcelona threat.

Kaka says that if he had his own way, then he would sign Messi. Kaka says:

"If Adriano Galliani ever gave me the reins of the transfer market, I would sign Messi.

"At this moment in time he is a player I like to watch. He can make the difference in an incredible way. If I could sign any player, yes, it would be Messi.

Can we play together? Of course. I can play with Messi, with Ronaldinho, with Alexandre Pato and with Pippo Inzaghi. It is just an issue of adapting to each other."

When Kaka says something like that, know that it is something genuinely worth following!
