I'm still not excluding the possibility that Kaka's the one wanting to leave. Milan don't keep players who want to go, even beloved players.

WOW! I made a break and now...we've signed a new young (brazilian (IMG: style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) ) RB...good news!! And now news are all around we're selling Kaka. Well... ...first of all I don't think Kaka is interested in a Manchester City move. Yes, he said if Milan accept an offer he'll move, but he did not say he'll move to any destination. Secondly, selling Kaka isn't that insane - we have a good midfield, if we add Gourcuff and a player more it will be sufficient, the money City offers is enormous on the other side. I don't think we can do much wrong. It's like Juve selling Zidane...we can re-build or re-structure for the next 1-2 seasons with that money. QUOTE (Zed.D @ Jan 15 2009, 08:12 PM)  God knows what will happen to that bald headed fag if this deal goes through, be it right now or in the summer. I enjoy from time to time reading your comments but this insult is very low. You should take it back. QUOTE It's not that Kaka want's to go, but Milan is willing to sell him for that money!!!! He said himself that if Milan decides to sell him, that he will go! They are saying that Milan has agreed for 150 m. eur! Hey, it's been a while since you visited us here! Welcome back bro! Nice sig, btw.

(IMG: style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) (IMG: style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) letting the future of this club leave and keep all the other +32year olds? when did Yoann all of a sudden become a part of our midfield?? You call selling Kaka and replacing him with Dinho and Bekham "rebuilding"? what did we do with Sheva's sale money? other than 'rebuilding' the team with likes of Favalli and Emerson... QUOTE I enjoy from time to time reading your comments but this insult is very low. You should take it back. What am I supposed to say? "I take it back"? (IMG: style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) OK. I just said it. (You want to know what's low? this is low (if true))

Galliani has been under armed guard for years, zeddie. That's nothing new.

And I don't really think Kaka is the future of the club. Guys like Pato, Paloschi, Mattioni if he's as good as the hype, etc are the future. Kaka's not a kid any more.

We all have our own definitions, zeddie. Kaka, to me, is the present of the club (along with Rino, Pirlo, etc). Pato/Paloschi/et al are the future to me.

when i first saw these headlines, i immediately dismissed them. EVERY SINGLE transfer window outrageous rumors fly about Kaka leaving. However, as these rumors persists, and there has been no definitive denial by any Milan management, I am truly becoming really nervous. If I had known this would happen..then I wouldn't have given a SH!T if Man City beat us to Ronaldinho's signature. Losing Kaka would hurt. And if Kaka is sold for 100+ million Euros...then what are transfer prices going to be like from here on out?! If Kaka goes for that much, then how much is Messi worth? How much is C. Ronaldo worth? Hell, even Tevez will be worth 40 Mil. Man City's ownership is going to completely change the game as far as transfer market prices go if this deal goes through. Young foreign players from South America touted as the "new messi" and the "new kaka" are going to flock to Man City for their riches, or at the very least use their bidding as a bargaining chip. Man City is creating upheaval in the world of football. anyways, ZD, here is as close we'll get to an official word - and it is NOT encouraging. Milan Channel acknowledges the ongoing transfer saga. QUOTE A statement on Milan's television channel confirmed that the situation was ongoing, reading: "We are considering Kakà's offer, Manchester City have sent us their proposal," said Milan Channel director Mauro Suma. "Considering means we have not made a decision or accepted anything. We are not talking about a deal that's already been sealed. There are still hours and days to go." and additionally, Clarence Seedorf has given a very insightful interview. It is a great read, but he also outlines that this transfer saga is very real, and even the players at Milan aren't sure of what's gonna happen. He concedes that Milan's response to this bid is VERY different from the response we levied against Madrid's and Chelsea's bids. What would make me sad is if after about a million interviews of Kaka saying "i love milan, i want to be captain, i want to remain, i want to stay...", our management basically ignores all of his wants/love for the club, and sells him for money. I thought that was NOT was AC MILAN was about. We love our Inzaghi's, and Ambrosini's, and Emersons, and let them OVERSTAY THEIR WELCOME...and then the one player who holds our team together for the last 5 years, we just wave goodbye to for money. I would be greatly disappointed - kaka is my favorite player and IMO the best there is. Here is the Seedorf interview: QUOTE Seedorf Would Be 'Surprised' To See Kaka Leave Milan For Manchester City This Month The Dutchman has given his honest and in-depth thoughts on his team-mate's immediate future, following the tabling of a world record bid from the world's richest club...

galleria zoom Clarence Seedorf has said that he would be surprised to see Kaka leave Milan for Manchester City this month.
The Citizens began negotiations earlier this week and are set to double the world record transfer fee in order to tempt Milan to relinquish their star man.
Though the player himself has said he hopes to retire at Milan as long as the club want him, if the Rossoneri have indeed accepted such a bid, it remains a possibility that he could negotiate a move to the City of Manchester Stadium.
What has been made clear in Milan, though, is that the Brazilian will not leave for money and that the project ongoing at Eastlands would have to appeal to him. City are currently fourth from bottom in the Premier League.
Clarence Seedorf, Kaka's Milan team-mate who has played for great Ajax and Real Madrid sides in the past, has revealed that Kaka's attitude has not changed in recent days, despite the chaos surrounding his future.
"These are marvellous figures," the Dutchman told Sky Sports News of the hyper-offer.
"It's very clear that City is sending a message to the world that they want to become one of the big clubs in the world in a very short time.
"I think the message is loud and clear for everybody.
"We're very good friends. He's used to the attention, we're all used to these types of things, though the amount changes - but we're all professionals and we know we have to deal with it in a fery professional way.
"He's a very important asset for us in the squad [and] for the club.
"He's still a young player, but he has done six or seven years already in Milan."
Seedorf would not be drawn on whether or not Kaka would want to move to Manchester City - if an offer is accepted, as has been suspected.
"He will think about it, but I cannot talk for Kaka, this is a decision only he can make, with his family," said the Dutchman.
"It's not something that you are going to be taking it easy about.
"It's a serious offer. I think everyone's considering the pros and the cons of such a movement.
"Kaka's a great professional and he's always committed to his work with the team.
"It would surprise me if he would leave in this month, but on the other hand, I don't know what the personal motivations could be from his side and also from the club."
He reiterated that the move will not be motivated by the money from Kaka's perspective, but that he could be doing Milan a favour of sorts by agreeing to go.
"When you make a change like this, you are not just changing because of the money," said Seedorf.
"That is not what he needs - he has a big contract already - when the player in general makes a change, the money is a consequence of the choice made, because of the project behind it and the new motivation that you can create for yourself to perform at your best and even better for the future.
"He is earning a lot of money already, it is not going to be life-changing for him, even to get a couple of million more.
"I know him also as a friend. if he may decide for a change, it would be for a long-term project that he could be an important part of, where he can make a difference within a team for a long-term project. He has to be motivated by the project, not the money.
"It's a difficult situation. Kaka is a player who has done so much for the team, so much for the club, so much for the fans. From that point of view, this would still be doing something important for AC Milan: bringing a lot of money for the club on which they could build for the future - if you want to see it from a positive side.
"On the other hand, he's still 26 and he could still play a number of years here in AC Milan, playing spectacular games for the fans of AC Milan, who all love him, being a great team-mate and a club icon for the years to come."
Having been the subject of similar but slightly less spectacular interest from Real Madrid in recent years, this is not entirely new territory for Kaka. Seedorf has sympathised with the fans, saying, "They're all worried.
"We're practically used to it. Maybe this offer is more concrete than it has been with Madrid. The reaction of AC Milan is maybe a little different than they had with Madrid.
"The fans are the ones who always suffer because the fans are always dream of keeping their best players. Having one of the best players leave is definitely not part of their dreams, so we really understand their feelings."
Kaka is said to be flying to Manchester this evening with his father (who is also his agent) to discuss the project, with strong rumours circulating that a bid of €120 million has been accepted by Milan, but with no official statement yet released as confirmation.
