Real Madrid are ready to write off more than £30m in losses on Brazilian midfielder Kaka after manager Jose Mourinho indicated his willingness to allow the playmaker forward to leave in the forthcoming January transfer window. Kaka joined Real from AC Milan for a whopping £55m in 2009 but hasn’t quite had the same impact as fellow marquee signing Cristiano Ronaldo at the Bernabeu.
Injuries have not helped the mercurial forward’s cause and Mourinho is reportedly ready to allow him to go because he has plenty of cover in midfield.
Kaka’s reported £20m + asking price will interest several known admirers, with Chelsea, French moneybags Paris Saint-Germain and his former club AC Milan leading the race to offer him an exit route from the Bernabeu.
