Hughes insists Kaka deal still on

Manchester City manager Mark Hughes insists their move for AC Milan superstar Kaka is still on.

Reports have linked City with a £100million bid for the Brazilian ace.

City boss Mark Hughes told Sky Sports News: “I’ve seen these reports but you have to bear in mind that the people who are being given a platform to speak do not represent the owner (Sheikh Mansour) or (chairman) Khaldoon (Al Mubarak).

“In my opinion they should not be given a platform to say what they have because in this instance it is completely untrue because negotiations are still taking place.”

He added: “It would be naive to think I have not been involved in discussions over this transfer. I have had meetings about it and have had an input.

“It is impossible to say whether it will go through or not but we will let everyone know when there is something to say.”
