Milan ace suffers recurrence of knee injury
Milan star Kaka hopes to be fit to face Arsenal in the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League.
The Brazilian playmaker has suffered a recurrence of the troublesome knee injury which saw him spend a recent spell on the sidelines.
As a precaution, Kaka came off at half-time in Milan's 2-1 victory over Palermo in Serie A on Sunday, but the Italian giants are concerned by the injury.
Kaka featured as Milan secured a 0-0 first-leg draw in the last 16 at Emirates Stadium last week and the European Cup holders will be keen to have their star player available as they bid to finish the job at the San Siro on 4th March.
However, Kaka - who will miss Milan's domestic meeting with Catania on Wednesday - has admitted his injury is worse than he first feared and that he faces a race against time to be fit in time to face the Gunners.
"It hurts a lot," Kaka told
TeleLombardia.
"I hope to be fit for the Champions League match with Arsenal. I definitely won't be there against Catania."
