Video: Kaka reduced to tears after being inducted into Milan hall of fame

The Derby della Madonnina was a particularly emotional experience for former Rossoneri midfielder Kaka, who was inducted into the Milan hall of fame before watching his former club defeat Inter 3-1 in San Siro: ‘It’s difficult to put into words the feelings I get here’.

Kaka was visibly emotional upon his induction to the Milan hall of fame on the pitch before kick-off against Inter in the Derby della Madonnina on Saturday evening.

The legendary Brazilian, the most recent Serie A player to win the Ballon d’Or, spoke briefly to DAZN after receiving the honour from his former club.

“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,” he said.

Kaka was asked if he would like to see more Brazilian talent come through the door at Millan in the near future.

He replied: “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.”

There used to be a chant sung about Andriy Shevchenko in San Siro, which Kaka thinks could be brought out again for Christian Pulisic: There’s also Pulisic as well and I think that chant – ‘he’s not Brazilian, but …’ works for him as well.”
