Blues prepared to break the bank for Brazilian
Manchester City are reported to be willing to pull out all the stops to sign AC Milan star Kaka.
As revealed by
Sky Sports News on Tuesday, a City delegation led by chief executive Garry Cook travelled to Italy on in a bid to pull off the world record transfer.
Cash-rich City are believed to be ready to pay £100million to land the Brazilian superstar and are prepared to offer Kaka lucrative personal terms to lure him to Eastlands.
Milan president Silvio Berlusconi has always insisted Kaka was not for sale at any price but the move has gathered pace after a website owned by Berlusconi reported City's interest was serious and that they intend to sign Kaka "at all costs".
"This time they (City) are here for real with an official delegation," said the report on the
Mediaset website.
"Manchester City want Kaka at all costs and they have shown their cards.
"Garry Cook, two representatives of Sheik Mansour and Kia Joorabchian, who is acting as a mediator, met with Adriano Galliani and Ernesto Bronzetti (Milan chief executive and commercial director) and made their offer."
If City were to be successful in their deal to sign Kaka it would dwarf the world record transfer of £46million that took Zinedine Zidane to Real Madrid in 2001.
