Rumours around Milan forums that Kaka has asked for yet another pay rise to stay at Milan

WWJD ;)

They should do what it takes to keep him. Kaka to City will be the death of the sport. City would accumulate a boatload of talent within 18 months if Kaka arrives making Chelsea's spree a mere footnote.

However, Milan shouldn't be held ransom by the player if he's already one of the highest paid players in the world. They have to look at their balance sheets too. Hopefully Kaka isn't using City's ridiculous offer to force Milan into upping his wage. Not the kind of action a good "Christian" would do, eh?
 
MILAN, Italy (AP) -Kaka's father and chief adviser, Bosco Leite, arrived in Italy on Monday to discuss his son's possible record transfer from AC Milan to Manchester City.

Bosco's first order of business was a private meeting with Kaka in the player's downtown home. Then came a meeting with Milan vice president Adriano Galliani that lasted two hours, the Gazzetta dello Sport reported on its Web site, after which Bosco had discussions with City's executive chairman Garry Cook, who has also arrived in Milan.

City has reportedly offered a world record 100 million pounds ($147 million, ?111 million) for the 2007 FIFA World Player of the Year to play in the Premier League.

Earlier, Italian Premier and Milan president Silvio Berlusconi returned overnight from a Gaza peace summit in Egypt and met with Galliani for 1 1/2 hours over Kaka, according to the ANSA news agency.

A group of about 300 fans protested outside Milan's downtown offices, chanting "Don't sell Kaka.'' A few flares were lit, but no problems were reported.

Kaka and his father want to confirm with Milan whether City's offer has been accepted and if he can negotiate with the English club.

There has been speculation that Kaka's camp will ask for a revision of his contract with Milan if he stays, although he is already the highest paid player for the Rossoneri at ?9 million (US$12 million) per season, and Milan does not appear inclined to accept such a request.

Milan's other Brazil stars earn much less - Ronaldinho ?4 million (US$5.3 million) and Alexandre Pato ?2 million (US$2.7 million) - and Milan fears that if it restructures Kaka's contract, other players will want to follow suit.

The 26-year-old Kaka is under contract with Milan through 2013.

He does this regularly. Did the same in 2007 when Madrid showed an interest.

He is already on 145k a week, more than Messi and Ronaldo.
 
What a greedy cnut if true, reckon Madrid may put in an offer, as he is certainly more attainable than Ronaldo is

Is this a pisstake, if not I reckon he stays. The only clubs I could see him going to are the big one in Manchester and Real Madrid.

Another publicity stunt from Kaka. From now on whether he goes or not he will always be a fecking winner among Milan fans. Those clueless morons would continue believe how the satanic forces Berlusconi and Galliani got rid of their best player.

Galliani, City and Kaka have all accepted the bid, and playing the blame game not to risk the ire of the fans.

At the moment it stands

Kaka 3 Milan 1

i reckon if he doesn't go to City this Jan, it's highly probable that he'll leave for Madrid in the summer.

like i said before, this whole affair could poison his relationship with the club.

Its definately paving the way for him to leave, whatever the outcome.
 
berlusconi on italian tv a few minutes ago. Kaka is staying with Milan until 2013. Kaka leaning out window waving at milan fans. that would be that it seems

The difference with Chelsea and City is that Chelsea didnt exactly get the best players even though at the time they were still a top 4 side.
City are gash and they signed Robinho and Kaka is a possibility. These 2 are 2 of the worlds best, alot better than any of Chelsea's signings. I really hope City feck up and get relegated.

Aye, but City have to spend on the likes of kaka and Robinho to make themselves look attractive to other top class players. Even then I think 30 mil pounds on a finished Shevchenko is more a waste of money than 90 mil on Kaka who's still got a lot to give and will serve an important function in persuading other top players to move to Eastlands. I do hope city get relegated though.
 
City are saying they broke of the transfer

Manchester City has terminated its discussions with AC Milan over the possible transfer of the player Kaka.
Following a meeting in Milan today, the Club felt that it was unlikely that the two parties could reach common ground for an agreement.

The discussions reached only a preliminary stage and the player was not involved at any time. No commercial terms were framed.

Commenting on the situation, Garry Cook stated: "Whilst Manchester City Football Club has an obvious interest in world class players of the quality of Kaka, we owe it to our fans that such a transfer must work on every level; commercially, financially, in terms of results on the field and within Manchester City's broader community."

Signing Kaka or not, they achieved their goal. They made their intent crystal clear. They could go out and buy 4 or 5 players that would improve the squad far more than Kaka could for the same money.

1. Damien Duff for £17 mil? You're having a laugh, thats not simply £2 - £3 mil more, thats a good £5 mil at least. He's a decent winger, but thats £6 mil more than what we paid for Ronaldo from Sporting!

That was the price to activate his release clause, he was a terrific talent, the price was fair

Having said that Ferreira was well over priced

no their goal was to buy kaka.

For me all they've done is shown how small a club they are. The world knows they got lucky with Robinho. It wasn't a state of things to come. I doubt they could attract the top, top players

Sure they might attract one or two under that - but would benezema consider them? Doubt it. City, other then money - have nothing much to offer. If your ambitious you'll sign for a top side, not city

Additional to that - let's just add they've wasted their time and embarassed their supporters. Bellamy!?

I think they'll continue to struggle and good for them :)

Surely Kaka would mean more in the long run had Madrid, Barca or any of the Big 4 offered that sort of money he would be wearing the respective shirt of theirs by now. I for one am glad as feck they didnt get him, they would never be able to get Ron or Messi, so the next guy on the totem pole was Kaka, and he said No surely that means something
 
Bear in mind that it was Berlosconi who originally broke the news, of the £100m offer, on his own website.

At no stage have the Dubai crowd confirmed this amount, rather a 'spokesman' close to the Sheik has stated that that figure is wide of the mark, that Citeh would only pay a realistic fee, nearer £50m than £100m, but that nothing had yet been tabled.

Berlosconi Public Relations. This way he keeps Kaka despite pressure from the richest club in the world. Hero.
 
Hahha, funny that he is the Italian PM, shows how far Italy have fallen since Muso, if you can run a football team and a country
 
I Laugh at everyone who calls Kaka going to city for the money. Everything about what he has done during this whole fiasco screams the guy has fantastic morals for a proffessional footballer. If only your Ronaldo was as loyal as that.

Ummmm, I will give you this I thought the same thing for a second, but when Real Madrid are calling your name it's a tad bit different than Shitty going after you.

He is already the best player in the world at arguably the best club at the world why would he want to move to Real Madrid?

Kaka has already won everything with Milan as well hasn't he?
 
What news eh? Assuming that there are no further twists to the tale, hat off to Kaka.

A decision that may have surprised a few [in two corners in particular] around the world but we most of us will be glad for the message he is sending.

How quickly things change.
 
The bit with him in the apartment kinda reminded me of Berbatov coming to United, my how the days go by
 
Christofaux said:
So you saying its personal drive and not money that made him go to city?
Click to expand...

He was one of the worst paid at Madrid shockingly, and could have got the money at Chelsea, in the end the numbers added up to a City move, something now he surely regrets, had he got the 11 goals at Chelski people would be talking about him as one of the best int world

no. but a bit of both. he needed to get out of Madrid after the tantrum he threw. he thought Chelsea were nailed on favourites to sign him.

i mean, even if you didn't know this, it pretty much makes sense. City only came into their riches on the very last day of the transfer window, and started bidding for players willy-nilly. Madrid took the first offer that matched their price.

while Chelsea, Scolari and Robinho had been batting their eyelashes at each other all summer.
