Milan fear Kaka absence
Friday 12 December, 2008

Kaka is in doubt for Milan's all-important Serie A battle against Juventus this weekend.

The Brasilia-born star, who is amongst the five nominees for the FIFA World Player of the Year, was absent from the final game at training this afternoon and spent most of the time working on his own in the gym.

The news is a stinging blow to Coach Carlo Ancelotti, who has already lost inspirational midfielder Gennaro Gattuso to a knee ligament problem.

Reports suggest that Carletto has been experimenting with an attacking trident of Clarence Seedorf, Ronaldinho and Alexandre Pato, preparing for Kaka's absence.

The club are expected to make a final decision on whether to risk Kaka later this evening and Milan fans will be waiting anxiously.
