Kaka eyes world title

Milan’s Brazilian ace Kaka has revealed that he has his heart set on clinching December’s FIFA Club World Cup.

The 25-year-old star is in an optmistic mood in spite of the Rossoneri’s poor recent showings in pre-season friendlies and is aiming for glory in Japan at the end of the year.

The competition for each of the six winners of major Continental tournaments will see Milan compete against Argentine side Boca Juniors, Mexicans Pachuca and three teams yet to qualify.

“I want the Champions League, Scudetto and Coppa Italia obviously, but I also have a special desire to win the Club World Cup,” Kaka insisted on Studio Sport.

“The Golden Ball? We will have to wait and see because it all depends on my performances for the Diavoli this term.”

The Brasilia-born midfielder added his comments on the arrival of fellow countryman Alexandre Pato from Internacional.

“I hope that he has the Italian mentality and can become one of the best Brazilians in Europe,” he stated. “I don’t know him all that well, but he is a young lad with incredible talent and when he arrives we will see how we can help him.

“The key right now is getting our injured strikers back as Pippo Inzaghi, Ronaldo and Alberto Gilardino are three vital players.”
