Kaka will demand a series of clauses in his contract ahead of agreeing to leave AC Milan for Manchester City this month. The Sun says his father and main agent Bosco is flying in from Brazil to Italy to enter into the negotiations, with Milan ready to take the money on offer from City.
But first Kaka, 26, wants written guarantees in his contract that during his time at City:
- Sheikh Mansour remains the owner of the club and continues his substantial investment.
- City qualify for the Champions League within two years.
- Robinho is not sold.
- His representatives remain in sole ownership of his image rights.
If any of these terms are broken or not met in his time at the club then a clause will be triggered, allowing him to be moved for a predetermined transfer fee, reducing with each year.
Kaka himself is not convinced Milan definitely want to keep him with a £100m transfer fee on the table, so he will listen to City if there is any indication the Italians are willing to sell.
The £75m on offer for himself in wages over five years is not the major point for the player.
He wants to play in the Premier League but for a club in the Champions League, not one currently looking over its shoulder at the relegation zone.
That is why he wants a get-out clause if City fail to qualify for Europe's premier club competition.
