Kaká has admitted that he has been shocked by the reaction after he said that violence in Italian football could see players leave and reiterated that he is not going anywhere.
The Brazilian stated that he felt that some stars could move abroad and others would be put off playing in Serie A if trouble continued.
That outburst led to speculation that he was considering his own future in Italy amid continuing rumours that Real Madrid and Barça are interested in him.
"I have never said that I want to leave Italy," he explained. I simply said that the spiral of violence could see some important players leaving.
"After calciopoli some players did leave Italy. I, on the other hand, have a long contract with Milan, which runs until 2011, and I am not the least bit ungrateful."
Some critics have also labelled Kaká as ungrateful for attacking Italian football after he has made his name and a generous living and that has hurt him.
"I am surprised," he continued. They have labelled me as ungrateful, but I could not be more grateful to Italian football and Milan.
"If I win the Ballon d'Or then I will use it to thank both Italy and AC Milan.
"I only wanted to send a warning as I was trying to help the football in which I play.
"I was not being critical. It is just that with all the violence, there is a risk that it could affect the decision of players who are considering whether to come to play in Italy."
