Kaka makes Cassano call Friday 18 March, 2005
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Milan midfielder Kaka has invited Antonio Cassano to leave Roma for the San Siro in the summer.
The Brazilian is a massive fan of the forward, who looks increasingly likely to leave the Giallorossi at the end of the season.
"Cassano is a player who I like," stated the 22-year-old fantasista. "He is a champion whose touches and genius excite me.
"It would be magnificent to play alongside him. We would form a perfect partnership, one that is technically in synch and unpredictable.
"Antonio really is an excellent footballer who is destined to keep on improving given his young age."
The former Bari youngster, whose contract at the Olimpico expires in 2006, isn’t believed to be a Milan target though.
The Azzurri ace, who was superb at Euro 2004, is more likely to join either Juventus or Real Madrid,
Juventus have also been heavily linked with another Roma player in the form of Cristian Chivu.
Reports over the past month have suggested that he could also leave the capital, but the Romanian has today denied that claim.
"I feel as if I owe this club a lot. For that reason I only see them in my future," said the defender.
Chivu, contracted to Roma until June 2008, is also being watched by Milan, Inter and Real Madrid.
