win took Kaka and AC Milan to the finals of the UEFA cup in 2007.

He was born to a rich family and enjoyed a comfortable early life. He joined Sao Paulo club at eight and
signed as a professional (职业的) player at 15. Three years later, he was the best player in the team.
"I plan my career (事业) by setting myself goals," he explained. "My goals drive me, they are what I fight
for."
And his next goal is to help the poor children. "When I was with the national team, we went to play in some
