Kaka, who won both the Ballon d’Or and the FIFA World Player of the Year Awards in 2007, has tipped the Manchester United winger to replace him as the world’s best player after the Portuguese star helped his side to a Premier League and Champions League double.
Ronaldo enjoyed a remarkable season last time out scoring 42 goals in all competitions and picking up the PFA Player of the Year Award.
Now, the Brazilian Kaka has revealed he thinks Ronaldo will replace him as the world’s best player. Speaking to the media, he said: “I believe that the number one candidate is still Cristiano Ronaldo, above all for what he did and won in the Champions League with Manchester United.”
Ronaldo scored the opening goal in the Champions League final against Chelsea and although the Blues equalised and the game ended level, Manchester United triumphed on penalties.
Whilst Ronaldo came third in the 2007 poll behind Kaka and Barcelona’s Lionel Messi, Kaka confessed that he doesn’t expect to top the lists again this year. AC Milan suffered a disappointing campaign in Serie A last season finishing fifth but a massive 36 points behind champions and city neighbours Inter.
Despite this, Kaka revealed he was looking forward to the new season and a chance to improve on last season’s poor league form.
“For me there's still half a season, so we'll see,” said Kaka before adding, “It will be a different season with lots of new inspirations.”
