AC Milan president Silvio Berlusconi has criticised Real Madrid for their transfer policy this summer.

The La Liga giants snapped up Kaka from the Rossoneri earlier this month and seem certain to complete the signing of Portugal international Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United shortly.

Berlusconi cannot believe the massive transfer fees that have been paid for the two world stars, telling La Gazzetta Dello Sport: "These are figures in football that are pure madness.

"They bear no relation to the normal economy and it is beyond common sense and decency."

As well as Kaka, Andrea Pirlo has also been linked with a move away from the San Siro this summer, with Berlusconi adding: "We will see what will happen.

"I was the first to say he should stay, but we must consider our accounts.

"Milan are a great team. We could even have won the title this year, but we played in the wrong way at times. I was the first to say that we conceded too many goals in the last few minutes."
