Leonardo: "Kaka is no longer a priority"

Ricardo Kaka pulls the petals off his future's daisy with the PSG petal already on the floor. The French club's sporting director, Leonardo, ruled out the transfer of Real Madrid midfielder in an interview in Le Parisien: "There is no negotiation. Nothing. I have a friendship with Kaka and, based on this, everyone speculates on the transfer to PSG. However, the truth is that, right now, Kaka is not a priority for us".

The PSG met with Kaka and Higuain at Madrid after the elimination of the white team in the Champions League semifinals against Bayern. The Sheikh of the French club, Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani, dreamed sign him, just as the team's coach, Carlo Ancelotti. The French teams took charge of the salary of the Brazilian (nine million euros net per season), but were unwilling to pay the 25 million euros required by Real Madrid.

Therefore, currently the four interested teams in Kaka's transfer are the Chinese Guangzhou (which offers him a salary of 18 million euros per year), Milan (which waits for his return on loan), Sao Paulo (which dreams with the return of the prodigal son) and the Red Bulls in the USA.

Chinese option is difficult due to low competitive level of the team, which would endanger his presence in the 2014 World Cup. Milan and Sao Paolo's problem is the money. And the American option does not seem clear. The player's agent spoke about his possible departure to the MLS, where there are other great players who played in Europe as Thierry Henry and David Beckham. "There is no negotiation. Even I do not know if it's a rumor or not. What I can say is that to live in America and play in Major League Soccer is a Kaka's dream. If not now, probably in the future he will play in MLS. Kaka's affinity for U.S.A. is known. He spends his holidays in Miami and has bought an apartment in New York" said Diogo Kotscho to the New York Post.
