Brazil star ready to go for gold again
Brazilian playmaker Kaka says Milan are determined to retain their Champions League title this year.
Kaka starred as Milan beat Liverpool 2-1 in last season's final in Athens and he is all set to kick-off this year's competition.
The Italians begin with a home match against Benfica on Tuesday, with Shakhtar Donetsk and Celtic making up the group.
"One of the reasons for which any side has been unable to win for two years consecutively is because after having won a similar trophy you relax," Kaka said.
Motivation
"I don't think it will happen to us, because we are ready and we have the motivation to win again. We want to do what the others have failed to do."
Celtic are familiar opposition for Kaka and Milan and he knows what to expect when the two teams meet.
"It's my fifth season in Milan and I think I have faced Celtic four times and it has always been hard for us, either in the San Siro or in Glasgow. We must be ready," he said.
