Between the sticks is Kaká’s former national team and AC Milan team-mate Dida, who he described as ‘unbelievable’.
Brazilian hero Kaká may be currently plying his trade in one of football’s backwaters, but that doesn’t mean the former Ballon d’Or winner doesn’t know his stuff when it comes to picking out players. Indeed in a recent interview, the Orlando City attacker was asked to pick his dream XI, and there were some pretty surprising selections. Perhaps the biggest omission was Lionel Messi, who Kaká acknowledged, but decided to pick another ‘genius’ instead. The team was: Dida – Cafú, Nesta, Maldini, Roberto Carlos – Pirlo, Andrés Iniesta, Zidane – Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Cristiano Ronaldo.
