The Blues will make one last attempt to sign Kaka from AC Milan in a record breaking £80million deal before the transfer window closes on Monday night, according to the Daily Mail.This summer the Stamford Bridge hierarchy were left believing they may have to wait a further 12 months before securing the services of the Brazilian superstar.
But now Andriy Shevchenko has gone on loan to AC Milan improving relations between the two clubs and Chelsea now understand that Kaka is even more keen to leave the San Siro.
He has been left stunned by a transfer policy that has seen players like the Ukrainian striker and Arsenal's Philippe Senderos arrive, but is even more unhappy with the recruitment of Ronaldinho.
Kaka is a devout Christian who does not approve of Ronaldinho's notoriously hedonistic lifestyle and is concerned with the direction Milan are taking.
Luiz Felipe Scolari's appointment at Stamford Bridge has also convinced Kaka that Chelsea would represent a worthwhile career move for him and it is now down to Roman Abramovich and his backroom staff to make the deal happen.
Abramovich and his manager, who gave the midfielder his Brazil debut in 2002, are united in wanting Kaka, so much so that if they fail to conclude the deal in this transfer window they will make a further attempt in January.
Milan missing out on Champions League football this season means Kaka would still be eligible for the knockout stages of the competition if he moved next year.
Scolari sees Kaka as the final piece of the jigsaw (sounds like Liverpool's yearly drone) when it comes to assembling a Chelsea team will also include Real Madrid's Robinho once that £25m deal has been completed in the next few days.
It would give Scolari amazing strength in depth in attack and having already lured Deco to the club, help him implement a flavour of the samba style he wants.
Discussions over Kaka's signing could take place this week in Monaco, where Chelsea and Milan will be represented for Champions League and UEFA Cup draws.
But Adriano Galliani, Milan's vice-president, insists no agreement was reached as part of the Shevchenko deal, which was completed on Monday.
He said: 'With Shevchenko we never, never talked about Kaka, so fans should stay calm.'
