Kaka celebrates Real’s bid to sign Ronaldo

New Delhi: Kaka’s €67.2 million move to Real Madrid just five days ago is on the verge of becoming forgotten news, after Los Blancos launched an unprecedented assault on Thursday morning to sign Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United.

The ex-Milan ace, however, has no problems vacating the spotlight for the Portuguese and, if anything, he is looking forward to playing alongside the soon-to-be former Red Devil.

"I rejoice in the signing of Cristiano," he replied to reporters when, upon touching down in Johannesburg with Brazil, he was informed that his new employers had made an official bid for 'CR7'.

"I do not want to talk any more about this subject because I am here with the Selecao and we are only thinking about winning the Confederations Cup. But there’s no doubt that Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the best players in the world and he will help Real Madrid fight for every title next season," he said.

Kaka became the world's second most expensive footballer earlier in the week following his switch to the Spanish behemoths, but he looks set to be demoted to third spot on the list if Ronaldo’s mega €94 million transfer goes through.

Madrid, meanwhile, are also reportedly hot favourites to land Valencia’s David Villa.
