Barcelona right-back Daniel Alves has further rubbed salt into Real Madrid’s aching wounds by commenting cheekily that his Brazilian international team-mate Kaka joined the wrong club in the summer.
The former AC Milan midfielder has come in for criticism in the wake of Los Blanco’s shock Champions League exit at the hands of Lyon on Wednesday evening.
Alves, who moved to the Blaugrana in 2008 from Sevilla, claimed that perhaps Kaka should have joined him at the Camp Nou instead of becoming part of Florentino Perez’s revolution in the capital.
In an interview with Italian sports paper La Gazzetta dello Sport, the 26-year old said, “I think Kaka has the wrong team. I was used to being comfortable with one team, but then I found another; In Milan, he played for the team, but that is not the case in Madrid.
“They have bought many important players, and one seems to take away the space from another. Kaka is not playing in the position he likes, things are complicated, and the pressure increases.”
Alves also drew comparisons with the Brazilian philosophy and that of Barcelona, insisting that Kaka would be better suited to the style of play adopted by Pep Guaradiola for the European Champions.
He added, “At Brazil we play as a collective, something that also happens in Barcelona, but not at Real Madrid. It would have been better if had come here with us (Barcelona).
“Our game is perfect for him. I am not the one who buys the players, but, if so, I would have signed him right away.”
