Kaka wins at Italian Football AwardsItaly’s World Cup-winning captain Fabio Cannavaro was named Best Player at the Italian Football Oscars on Monday. In the other categories, AC Milan playmaker Kaka shared the Best Foreign Player award with Cagliari striker David SuazoThe award, based on the votes of members of the Italian Footballers Association, was one of three Cannavaro won at the ceremony in Milan after also coming out top in the Best Italian Player and Best Defender categories. Kaka tells UEFA.com of his confidence in ShevaAC Milan playmaker Kak? has backed his old friend Andriy Shevchenko to come good for Chelsea FC. ‘Star’Shevchenko has endured a difficult six months in London as he adjusts to the demands of a new league, but his former Rossoneri team-mate believes Chelsea fans will soon be seeing the best of the 30-year-old striker. “It is always hard for a player to adapt to a new country and a new school of football and that’s why the English haven’t seen the same player he was in Italy,” Kak? told uefa.com. “Sooner rather than later he will become one of the stars of the Premiership, I’m sure.” Phenomenal recordKak? is well placed to judge, having played provider for many of Shevchenko’s goals during the three years the pair spent together at San Siro. After scoring 127 times in 208 Serie A appearances for Milan, the Ukrainian international has so far been unable to live up to expectations at Stamford Bridge, where a return of just three Premiership goals has put his first-team spot in doubt. ‘Top man’Indeed, talk of dressing-room unrest as Chelsea’s form has dipped has increased the pressure on Shevchenko in recent weeks, prompting Kak? to come to the defence of his erstwhile colleague. “Sheva is a top man and one of the best strikers in the world and I can assure anybody that all those stories about his behaviour in the dressing room are rubbish. He always proved to be loyal to his team mates in Milan and can be a good friend.” Return to formPerhaps Shevchenko is already turning the corner. He struck twice against Wycombe Wanderers FC in the League Cup semi-finals last week and was back among the goals on Sunday when his deflected shot opened the scoring in Chelsea’s 3-0 FA Cup victory against Nottingham Forest FC. MeetingChelsea will be hoping that run continues as they look towards their meeting with FC Porto in the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League next month – and Kak?, who will visit London next week for Brazil’s friendly against Portugal at the Arsenal Stadium, will be keeping a close eye on his progress. “Maybe when I am in London, I will also have a chance to catch up with my friend Shevchenko,” he said. “I was glad to see him scoring goals again this week.”After Ronaldo Kaka pushes AC Milan to go for Ronaldinho Kaka is pushing AC Milan to make it a double Spanish raid by going for Barcelona ace Ronaldinho after the capture of Real Madrid striker Ronaldo. “To play alongside Ronaldo is a dream becoming reality,” said Kaka. “If now the superstar (Ronaldinho) of Barcelona was to come to Milan, it would be the greatest.”I have always been a follower of Ronaldo and my dream was always to be able to play at his side. Now that has become reality, now I hope Barcelona decides to sell Ronaldinho and that Milan buys him. “For me, it would be incredible to play next to two such great talents of Brazilian soccer and whom I admire so much.” Sources : UEFA.com, Soccernet and Tribal Football
