Kaka staying at AC Milan

Kaka is staying at AC Milan and won't be moving to English premier league football side Manchester City, ending what could have been a world record transfer deal.

The English Premier League side $220 milion for the Brazil playmaker but the two clubs differed on the reasons for the collapse of talks, with Milan owner and Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi saying the 26-year-old had turned City down.

City, owned by the Abu Dhabi United Group, says an agreement with the Serie A side wasn't possible and they terminated discussions which only reached a preliminary stage and the player wasn't involved.
