Kaka of Brazil raises the
FIFA World Player 2007 award during the FIFA World Player of the
Year awards ceremony in Zurich Dec. 17, 2007.
World player of the year Kaka said Thursday he hopes to play for
Brazil in Beijing Olympic Games in August.
AC Milan's striker Kaka has won almost every club and individual
honor there is in football except one title, that of Olympic
champion.
Indeed, it is the only title Brazil have yet to win despite
being crowned world champions a record five times.
Speaking at a World Food Program 'Fill the Cup' campaign, Kaka
admitted he would like to be selected as one of the three players
over 23 years of age permitted in each squad in China.
"I would like to (play) but I will leave it up to the CBF
(Brazilian Football Confederation) and Milan to decide," he
said.
