Your support makes all the difference.AC Milan head coach Massimiliano Allegri has dismissed speculation linking Brazilian superstar Kaka with a return to the San Siro in the January transfer window.
The 28-year-old is currently sidelined by injury, having left the Rossoneri to join Real in the summer of 2009 after spending six years at the San Siro.
Allegri told the Italian media: "Kaka is an extraordinary player, but at the moment we don't have the time to think about the market.
"For now we are fine as we are. I don't have any thoughts on Kaka or the market, as Milan are very competitive as we are.
"I don't think the reports have disturbed my team. For now we are focusing on our upcoming games against Real Madrid in the Champions League, then Juventus and Napoli.
"We have to focus on that. Everything else is rumours that surround us."
