Kaka on San Siro
Kaka spoke briefly to DAZN after receiving the honour from Milan. He said: "It’s very difficult to put into words the feelings I get here when I’m in San Siro with all the Milan fans. It’s a special day for me."
Brazilians and Modric
Asked whether he would like to see more Brazilian talent arrive at Milan, Kaka said: "I like to see Brazilians at top clubs – I’d like to see them again at Milan! I like Luka Modric a lot anyway, he’s a friend of mine as well."
Pulisic chant
Kaka said: "There’s also Pulisic as well and I think that chant – ‘he’s not Brazilian, but …’ works for him as well."
