AC Milan confirm Kaka exit with a statement full of hugs and undying love

He’s (eventually) going to Disneyland.

AC MILAN HAVE today confirmed that Kaka is to leave the club for a second time.

The Brazilian playmaker is widely expected to join Orland City in the MLS.

However, before going stateside he may also take in one last victory lap with his boyhood club Sao Paulo.

Though no official statement has been made as to Kaka’s future plans, the prolonged move to the MLS would suggest some contract wrangling to allow him play through the off-season.

A statement from the Rossoneri today professed undying love for ‘Ricky’, saying:

“There is no doubt that the mutual feeling of love and respect will always be there.

“Ricky joined the club in 2003 and even after he moved on to Real Madrid he kept Milan close to him, texting his congratulations when the team won the league in 2011.”

“So, it is ciao, Ricky! A big hug to you, Carolina and your children and we know you will be tied to the Rossoneri forever and we hope that you will be sending messages of congratulations in the future.”

    Any word on his jaw injury? It must not be as bad as cosy thought if he’s giving interviews and no mention of it at all.

    Surely it would have been mentioned if it was bad and I’m going to take the fact that he can talk as a good sign. He was walking around at the end hugging people without flinching as well and let’s face it, his jaw-line is majestic anyway so I’d say it’ll be hard to do much damage.

    He’s definitely ahead of White for us in my view but if both were missing it would be a huge blow.

    He seems okay in Connacht players post match interviews with Connacht Rugby TV.

    It’s obvious now why Henshaw is leaving. He can’t get a spot as centre!

    Peter Robb is a big unit. Is he good enough to compete against our international 12′s I wonder. Extra choice for Ireland at centre can only be a good thing.

    After all the worrying about who our centres were going to be after BOD and D’Arcy retired, we will have a ridiculous amount of options going forward. Henshaw and Payne are clearly Joe’s first choice but then there’s the likes of McCloskey, Marshall, Olding, Ringrose and Aki maybe soon to be in the mix.

    And that’s before mentioning other young lads like Scannel and Robb. Fitzgerald could be included but any games he gets for Ireland from now on will probably either be on the wing or from the bench and unfortunately for Cave his time with Ireland is probably up.

    Furlong bealham and Moore will be worthy of Ross’ throne once he’s gone. I think he could last 2-3 more years despite his age. He hasn’t had a huge number of caps because he wasn’t getting picked for years with Hayes court and Buckley all preferred.

    Really happy to see Bealham doing so well. He should be pushing for an Ireland spot soon.

    Developing into a super player, looks like the heir apparent to Mike Ross.
