With regards to the earlier post about Berlusconi's words, I think it is worth remembering that he did actually tell the truth about the whole issue when Sheva decided to leave. You can say what you want about Berlu, but he is not one to mince words, especially when it comes to Milan.

Also, I have to admit, I have never completely trusted Kaka's devotion to Milan. There's been something iffy about the way he has acted whenever another club has been interested in buying him, usually saying that "he will stay if Milan doesn't decide to sell," or "stay as long as the club's goals are the same as his own." And, as was pointed out in another post, it has usually ended with him signing a better contract with Milan.

I am not really sure what to think at this moment. Selling our best player would be unusual for Milan, as we have rejected massive offers for important players before. I really hope the Manchester City bid isn't being used as a bargaining tool by Kaka and his advisors.
At the same time, it could be that Kaka actually wants to stay, and the club is forcing him to leave, due to this massive offer being too "good" to reject.

One thing is for certain though. If Berlusconi wants to improve his public image, the best thing for him to do would be to step in and put an end to these negotiations himself, simply by stating that "Kaka will undoubtedly remain a Milan player."
