Manchester United face stiff competition for AC Milan superstar Kaka.

The Daily Mail says intermediaries of the Premier League champions will meet Milan in the next week to discuss figures and the possibility of luring the brilliant playmaker to Old Trafford.

Real Madrid are also keen on Kaka, but are unlikely to sign him and the FIFA World Player of the Year. Chelsea have also maintained an interest in the former Sao Paulo star, who has indicated in the past that he intends to test himself in the Barclays Premier League before the end of his career.

Although he snubbed a lucrative move to City in January, there are suggestions that he has become unsettled by Milan's decision to accept a bid for him.

There are also concerns that Milan have not replaced their ageing stars and he recently pleaded in vain for the club to sign Steven Gerrard from Liverpool.

Milan president Silvio Berlusoni admitted this week he wouldn't stop Kaka leaving in the summer.
