Kaka: His childhood
Ricardo Izecson dos Santos Leite, known in the football world as Kaka, was born on 22 April 1982 in Brasila. His father is an engineer and his mother a teacher, a situation that allowed him to grow up in a middle-class atmosphere. He moved to Sao Paulo when he was four years old and began playing football in that city. AS journalist Julio Maldonado gives us a glimpse of the life of Kaka in a series of articles.
