Injury setback for Kaka
Real Madrid midfielder Kaka faces a further fortnight on the sidelines after suffering another knee injury.
The 28-year-old only recently returned to first-team action following eight months out, and he felt another niggle to the same knee which underwent surgery during the match against Deportivo La Coruna at the end of last month.
He subsequently underwent scans which uncovered an oedema – an accumulation of fluid – on the knee.
A Madrid statement today read: “Treatment includes fitness work in the gymnasium and on the pitch, as well as complementary physiotherapy.
“The player is expected to miss 15 days and his progress will be monitored.”
