The only person to ever successfully manipulate Itachi was Danzo and even that is arguable since it was Itachi who came to the conclusion that the Uchiha needed to die. Itachi is too smart and too wise to be manipulated or tricked by someone like Madara or Obito. Black Zetsu was the one who did the most manipulation of all, yet he isn't smarter than the others he is just a sly tricky POS. You all are construing intelligence.. Hiruzen, Minato, Itachi, Shikaku, and Shikamaru are the most intelligent characters in the series. Madara will never outwit Itachi, and without the Stolen Sage Mode Sasuke is faster than Madara.. Itachi is faster than Sasuke, who is faster than Obito also. So if you use your brain here, its easy to see that Itachi is physically faster than all other Uchiha except maybe Shisui who is renowned for his speed and genjutsu. Madara has more chakra and destructive ninjutsu.. that's it. Itachi has more speed, better intelligence, and better genjutsu but then you have to remember he is an Edo Tensei so his chakra will infinitely refill so Madara's chakra advantage is gone. There is no plot shielding here, so his transmigrant bs won't help Madara here.. he's just as vulnerable as anybody else is. Too add.Haxs>power.
