Milan have confirmed that they have ended their pursuit of Real Madrid’s Ricky Kaka. “It’s too much of a risk.”
The Diavolo have been in talks for their former Golden Ball winner with the intention of taking him back on loan for the 2012-13 campaign.
However, after holding talks with the Madrid outfit and the Brazilian’s entourage, the San Siro giants have had to admit defeat.
“There are tax issues for Kaka,” Milan Vice-President Adriano Galliani noted. “The negotiations have come to an end. It’s too risky.”
Galliani made the statement after wrapping up a deal with Caen for teenage striker M'Baye Niang.
“I don’t know if our market will end with him,” the official added. “He’s here for now, then we will have to wait and see.
“He can play as a first or a second striker. He’s only 17, but he’ll be in the first team squad under Massimiliano Allegri.
“We think he’s a good player – even if I usually give new players six months before making a final assessment of them.”
