Man City end talks to bring in Kaká

In a peculiar twist, Manchester City have issued a formal statement that they have terminated discussions to bring Kaká from AC Milan.

Citizens executive chairman Garry Cook said the following:

“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.”

While this shuts the door on the Kaká transfer, their is considerable talk of the behind the scenes event and how this deal unraveled after the terms had apparently been agreed to.
