Football: Injury delays Kaka’s Brazil return

MADRID: Kaka will have to wait before making his return to international football after Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho said he was suffering from an injury. Kaka had been called up for Brazil’s friendlies against Gabon and Egypt, and was set to make his first international appearance since their World Cup quarter-final exit last year. “Kaka will not be able to go with Brazil,” said Mourinho. “It’s a small injury typical of those that happen every season and he’s going to stay here 15 days to recover.”
