Brazilian legend, Kaka in an interaction with GOAL, created his ideal player blending various skills from multiple football players. The former AC Milan star described the players who possess a particular attribute combined to create an ultimate ‘baller’.
The retired footballer, 41, concluded his highly successful career in 2017 and has since been actively involved in mentoring young players globally. Spending his final three years at Orlando City, he has shown interest in serving as a director at AC Milan. The former FIFA World Player of the Year passionately supports budding talents, endorsing events like the FIFA Youth Cup, more popularly known as the FIFA Blue Stars. Other than football-related associations, Kaka following his retirement has also been inclined towards adventure sports such as sky diving.
In an interview with GOAL, the ex-Real Madrid player imagined crafting a dream footballer by blending skills from different players. Picture this: the left-foot finesse of Marcelo, the right-foot mastery of Neymar, the speed of Kylian Mbappe, and the strength of Erling Haaland. Further, to top this all Kaka said he would want this player to have skills like Lionel Messi and footballing intelligence to that of Kevin De Bruyne.
The lively online discussion about the best player’s skills got fans talking. Many liked Kaka’s choices, but some were upset that Cristiano Ronaldo wasn’t mentioned. They think Ronaldo has the qualities of a perfect player too.

Known for his creative passing, goal-scoring, and dribbling abilities, Kaká is widely considered one of the best football players of his generation. The Brazilian international, who had a career spanning almost 20 years, played for two of Europe’s finest clubs, AC Milan and Real Madrid.
