Former AC Milan GM Adriano Galliani has confirmed he tried to sign Kaka for Monza.

Galliani is now in charge of Monza after former Milan president Silvio Berlusconi bought the club last year.

And among their transfer plans was bringing Kaka out of retirement.

Galliani revealed: "Kakà told me no, I asked him to come to Monza, but he did not want to leave Sao Paolo and his sons."

Galliani also confirmed the brother of Lucas Paqueta is training with them.

"(Cristian) Brocchi has always been linked to us. Eduardo Uram, the agent of Paquetà, I knew him since Thiago Silva: he asked me the courtesy to test this guy and we did it willingly."
