Why Kaka was at Manchester United training ground on Monday

Former Ballon d'Or winner Kaka was at Manchester United's Carrington training ground on Monday, a day after he'd taken in the 3-1 win against Arsenal from the Stretford End.

The Brazilian great was at the game against the Gunners with his former international teammate and Inter Milan goalkeeper Julio Cesar. The pair were also together at Carrington on Monday, where are taking part in courses as part of UEFA's Masters for International Players qualification.

They were accompanied by Stephane Ehrhart, UEFA's career transitions expert and an instructor on the course, which is designed to give former international players the professional skills to move into a second career within football once their playing days are over.
