£135 millions transfer for a single player is ridiculous. . . this is the start of DELUGE. . . these billionaires are killing football game. . . if this transfer goes through, I would say greediness has triumphed. . . My respect for Kaka will be tainted. . . he should act as what a good Christian is as he himself proclaimed. . . and what is this 20 MILLION EUROS for agents, it's crazy. . .

Hughes draws up Kaka battle plan as City close in on Milan playmaker
• £135m world-record signing 'very close'
• Brazilian to be fulcrum of bold 4-1-4-1 line-up
Last night Milan's vice-president Adriano Galliani confirmed the club were "evaluating" an offer for Kaka, and gave the midfielder permission to speak to City. The fee widely reporting in Italy as being in the region of €120m (£108m). However unconfirmed reports said City's total payment will near €150m (£135m), breaking down as:
• €120m as a fee for Kaka
• €20m in agents' fees
• €10m for Kaka's father
Kaka's wages are expected to be £13.5m per annum after tax; in other words, around £500,000 gross per week, making him the highest-paid footballer in the world. Although Kaka has publicly claimed that he wants to "grow old" with Milan, he has indicated he would be happy to meet representatives from the Abu Dhabi United Group. City's owners feel the deal now hinges entirely on whether the player can be persuaded to leave one of Europe's most successful institutions for a club in the early stages of a thorough transformation.
City are hopeful that the player's father, Bosco Leite, will meet the club's executive chairman, Garry Cook, and be convinced about the club's potential and Hughes dismissed reports emanating from Abu Dhabi yesterday that the deal was off. The manager also rejected suggestions that the deal had been arranged above his head.
