CKEditor inherit font style in link tag

Hi Guys,

I tried asking this question on stackoverflow - unfortunately nobody was able to answer.

I need to force CKEditor to apply font styling to a link tag instead of inner span tag. For example, when you write some text, add a link to this text, and change the color of of the link, the source look like this:

<a href="http://www.google.com" target="_blank"><span style="color: rgb(221, 160, 221);">Click here...</span></a>

I need it to be generated like this:

<a style="color: rgb(221, 160, 221);" href="http://www.google.com" target="_blank"><span>Click here...</span></a>

Or like this:

<a style="color: rgb(221, 160, 221);" href="http://www.google.com" target="_blank"><span style="color: rgb(221, 160, 221);">Click here...</span>
