At first, it was expected that Kaka would have reinstated training yesterday with the teamplate. However, the midfielder remained inside the gym working with the physios. If all the plan carried out by the Madrid medical services goes well, today or tomorrow Brazilian will return to the group.

The report of the club emitted on March 8 after the medical examination the player had been subjected, reported that Kaka suffered "a slight edema in the external side of his left knee compatible with iliotibial syndrome of the same knee". Previously, player had met with Mourinho and both had agreed that the Brazilian will not play again until he was in perfect condition.

Will have to see how the Kaka's knee responds when he starts working with the group, but if all goes well, the player could be available to Mourinho for the meeting next weekend against Sporting Gijón. So far this season, the midfielder has only played 11 games (8 in the League and 3 in Spanish Cup).

The last match in which Kaka participated, goes back to February 26. That day Madrid draw against Deportivo in the Riazor Stadium and the Brazilian played 60 minutes. He was replaced by Di Maria. After that meeting, only went back for the win (7-0) against Malaga at the Bernabeu Stadium, but he did not play any minute.
