Kaka works overtime with Real Madrid Castilla

Kaka does not give up. The Brazilian is hoping that Mourinho will provide him the first minutes of the season, so he is training hard. He is not sat, much less. On Wednesday, the day off of the first team after the win against Manchester City, the white midfielder went early to Valdebebas and was working with Alberto Toril's team. Overtime with Real Madrid Castilla to stick with his 'setup'.

Kaka training with Real Madrid Castilla

Kaka has been included in the squad in the last three games. In the Champions League match even sat in the bench over usual replacement players as Callejon, who was ruled out to the stands. But his stats continue to zero. Far from faint, the Golden Ball 2007 is pounding to prove to Mourinho, his teammates and the fans that he still has some football to offer to Real Madrid.

On wednesday he trained with Castilla, but it is common to see him in the afternoons at Valdebebas, after training in the morning sessions, to continue doing so after eating, and alone. An example for youth players, who see how a world champion does not lose the opportunity to train with the second team on his day off.

Maybe he gets a chance to play in Vallecas, where Real Madrid will play on Sunday without the possibility to fail. It will be a rough game. Against Rayo Vallecano at its home, it always is. But the Brazilian is looking forward to feel like a player, and the only way is to jump into the field with a Real Madrid's jersey.
