The billionaire new owners of Manchester City are offering over 100 million euro to acquire the services of Milan's ace attacking midfielder Kakà. They're also offering the player a salary of about 12 million euro per year. That's more than 32000 euro per day. Presently, Milan are 'only' paying him 9 million per year, which is just 24000 per day...
Given the financial size of the offer, and the fact that Kakà's father (his agent) is asking for a pay increase for his son, Milan are seriously considering selling Kakà and collecting a fortune. Better collect a fortune while it's available, than risk the player getting injured or just walking away for free at the end of his contract. But not everyone is exactly enthusiastic about the idea. Take the fans, for example, who have organised a protest in front of the club headquarters, urging Milan not to sell Kakà. The player himself has been quite consistent in maintaining he wants to stay on with Milan, having already resisted various advances by those other poachers, Real Madrid.
Kakà would be a fool to go to Manchester City. He would be leaving one of the best football clubs in the world to join a non-entity. OK, he would earn a heck of a lot more money, but beyond a certain stage it doesn't make much difference anymore. He already earns more than he will ever need, and the fans adore him. He has the chance to become one of Milan's best players ever, to win who knows how many more trophies with them. No, he shouldn't throw all this away, just to become even richer when he's already very rich.
As a football fan, I hope this madness won't materialise. I'm sick and tired of all these obscure sheikhs trying to bully their way to the success. Kakà had said once that he wants to eventually become Milan's captain. Let's see if Mr Nice Guy had really meant what he said.
