DESPITE COSTING REAL MADRID more than €65 million when he signed in 2009, the Spanish giants have allowed Brazilian forward Kaká return to his former club AC Milan on a free transfer.
The 2007 world player of the year announced late last month that he wanted to leave Madrid, believing his playing opportunities would be limited under new Real coach Carlo Ancelotti.
Talks between the two clubs were instigated over the weekend and the Brazilian signed a two-year deal overnight.
“Last night, thanks to the traditionally good relationship between the two clubs, Real Madrid and Milan reached and formalised an agreement for the transfer of Ricardo Kaká into Rossonero colours,” said a Milan statement.
“And overnight, a little before three in the morning, an agreement was reached with the world-class Brazilian.”
Despite the hype surrounding his arrival at Madrid, Kaká failed to live up to his reputation as the (then) world’s best player, making just 85 appearances in four injury affected seasons.
In his last stint with Milan, the 31-year old won a Serie A, Champions League and Club World Cup titles.
I’m always hearing about this guy ranting on the court. I’ve come to the conclusion that I think he may have some serious mental health problems, and needs to get some help.
@The Upside-down Triangle: could be just a tool
@Adam Newman: bit of both I think.
W@nker
Waster he is
Was the ball actually out?
To be fair, sometimes you just have to call out a bad hat.
@Richard O’Brien: not while wearing that outfit!
An awful gimp of a chap
He’s correct about the hat. Is he also correct about the out decision?
He may be an awful eejit but he draws some huge crowds and easily one of the most entertaining players on tour, shame he’ll never make the most of his potential
Remember the crowds flocked to McEnroe matches more to witness the rants than his ability
@Noel Lynn: McEnroe on his worst day was never as bad as this headcase. He’s toxic and disruptive and previous disciplinaries have done nothing. He should be kicked off the tour for a season and be made prove himself with a clean record for another couple of years after. No player or official should have to put up with a second of his cr@p.
