Real Madrid Playmaker Kaka: I Will Return To Action Soon
Brazilian midfielder Kaka hopes to be back in action for Real Madrid in the new year.
By Paul Macdonald
The Brazilian, who struggled during his debut season at the Santiago Bernabeu following his expensive move from Italian giants Milan last summer, underwent surgery after the World Cup to mend a long-standing knee injury.
The surgery was a complete success but left Kaka with up to four months on the sidelines and facing a long road back to full fitness.
Spanish publication AS reports that the 28-year-old has announced via his Twitter page that he is unlikely to return to action until 2011, but that he will work hard to be ahead of schedule.
He said: “On September 5, it was one month since my operation. I have a lot of physiotherapy for optimal recovery. I’ll be back soon.”
