Let $k_1$ and $k_2$ be two circles that are externally tangent at point $C$. We have a point $A$ on $k_1$ and a point $B$ on $k_2$ such that $C$ is an interior point of segment $AB$. Let $k_3$ be a circle that passes through points $A$ and $B$ and intersects circles $k_1$ and $k_2$ another time at points $M$ and $N$ respectively. Let $k_4$ be the circumscribed circle of triangle $CMN$. Prove that the centres of circles $k_1, k_2, k_3$ and $k_4$ all lie on the same circle.
