Milan will move forward whether they keep hold of Kaka or not, coach Carlo Ancelotti said today.

Manchester City are talking with Milan about a possible deal and media reports say the Premier League club have bid at least 100 million euros for the Brazilian.

"Talks are happening. I hope I can coach him for the long term but if he leaves our objectives do not change," Ancelotti told a news conference.

Brazil playmaker Kaka said earlier this week he wanted to grow old at Milan but City have sounded confident that they can persuade the Serie A club to sell the 26-year-old.
