Kaka is celebrating his 41st birthday today, and AC Milan sent a message to the former playmaker to mark the special occasion.
Kaka joined Milan in 2003 and helped the Rossoneri win the Serie A title in his first season, as well as winning the 2006–07 UEFA Champions League as the tournament’s top goal scorer. He scooped the 2007 Ballon d’Or and the UEFA Club Footballer of the Year.
He gave us countless memories, and Milan have marked the occasion with a compilation of his best goals.
Too many to fit in one clip 📽️😉

Kaka was born about a decade too early.
He was a great player with a great career in his time, but if he played in todays era of open football, based on fast counter attacking football and bad defenses, he would be the best player in the world year after year. His style is perfect for this era.
Far more skilled and more technical than the players that most people hype up today.
Crazy how much better he is than anyone we have right now. Truly a legend. If he was around today with how bad defenders are would be a multi Ballon d’or winner.
Ricardo Dos Santos Izecson Leite Kaka…. I miss Ricky alot. My favorite of all except Paolo Maldini ❤️🖤
Such a special player that is so underrated by almost everyone besides Milan fans. Pure magic on the ball
Still remember that goal in derby 2004 where we need that goal desperately on the field with haze from the fans
