Ricardo Izecson dos Santos Leite commonly known as Kaka. The 26 -year- old attacking midfielder expressed his decision to remain at AC Milan. Manchester City had earlier wanted to buy him but their efforts were fruitless.
He was born on April 22, 1982 in Brazil, the Brazilian footballer who plays as a midfielder for Brazil and the Serie A club A.C. Milan. He is one of the budding young stars in world football.
The Premier League club was also set to pay Kaka wages of £500,000 a week to quit Milan for Manchester.
Kaká’s younger brother Rodrigo Izecson Dos Santos Leite, known as Digão, followed in his brother’s footsteps and is currently on loan with Serie B team Rimini, after having spent some time in the AC Milan youth squad.
An internet discussion forum explains the nickname as a commonly used shortened form of "Ricardo" in Portuguese.
Kaká is supposed to have got his nickname because his little brother Rodrigo could not pronounce the word "Ricardo" when they were young.
