The galactico era seems to be over at Real. Carlos's departure will signal an end to that era.
They are buying much more sensibly now. Calderon has to save face with all his claims of Ronaldo and Kaka. But he always knew they were out of reach.
Perez was a class act. Calderon is not half of what he was.
Kaka's image has been used to a great degree by Milan, so you are wrong about that. Milan are very very good at marketing as well.
You will not get a galactico, in my opinion, this summer or even the next. The reason is simple. Man U and Milan are not selling clubs. Berlusconi is worth something like 12 billion US dollars. The money you will offer, he doesn't need.
Man U are also very wealthy. Contrast this with when Juve sold you Zidane. They are a rich club, but their philosophy is different. They replaced Zidane with Nedved. Even if we get Ronaldinho (unlikely) we would never sell you Kaka. Berlu wants to see Ronaldinho-Kaka-Ronaldo up front.
Honestly, last summer, I thought you guys had a small chance of getting Kaka. Calderon blew it, IMO, and the relationship between the clubs will never be the same--even with the purchase of Ronaldo.
At the end of August 31, we'll see.
Well Real and Milan are the two biggest clubs in Europe. Players would love to play there. I'm sure if Milan decided to sell Kaka to Real, Kaka wouldn't throw a fit; rather he would welcome it.
However, he is also very happy at Milan. I think it will come down to whether Milan want to sell, and I don't think they will, simply because we are a rich club on our own and when you throw Berlu in the mix, it takes us to almost Chelsea's level.
In Sheva's case, the player came out and asked for a transfer, and Galliani didn't really negotiate with him because he probably thought, ok here's a guy who's 30 and Chelsea are willing to pay us a wad of cash. And so he sold him. Great piece of business if you ask me.
As for the galactico bit, you may be right. The marketing bit...I agree Real are adept at promoting their brand, but remember in a recent poll (bluenine will testify) Inter and Milan came out to be amongst the most popular clubs in the Far East. Milan are also promoting their brand here in North America as well.
