Milan playmaker Kaka believes that Cesc Fabregas has the potential to be the best in the world.

The Brazilian, who led Milan to UEFA Champions League glory season, is the reigning European and World Player of the Year and fully expects Arsenal's Spanish star to be challenging for those awards in the near future.

Fabregas has become a key component in the Gunners' talented young squad and Kaka has compared his presence on the pitch to that of World Cup winner, and Milan team-mate, Andrea Pirlo.

Control

"He (Fabregas) is a great player for the future," he said.

"He's an amazing talent because of how he plays and how he controls how others play.

"He's always moving. He's the prototype of the modern footballer because he is aware of everything that his happening on the pitch.

"In some ways he reminds me of Pirlo."
