Milan star Kaka is one of five remaining contenders for the FIFA World Player of the Year award for 2008.
The Brazilian scooped the prize last term, adding it to the Ballon d'Or and FIFPro award.
But Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo is the favourite to triumph this time around.
The Portuguese superstar has already won the 2008 Ballon d'Or for his efforts on the domestic and European stage last year.
Barcelona hitman Lionel Messi, Liverpool striker Fernando Torres and Spanish international midfielder Xavi are the other contenders.
The award will be presented on January 12 along with the FIFA Presidential Award and the FIFA Fair Play Award.
The candidates were voted for by the Coaches and captains of men's and women's national teams from all over the world. |
