    Could Kaka's Search For A New Club Lead Him To The Premier League?

    There was a time not so long ago that Brazilian playmaker Kaka was the best player in the world. In 2007 while the silky midfielder was plying his trade with Milan he was awarded with the Ballon d'Or accolade and seemed like he was the untouchable in European football. But six years later and he has been largely dismissed by Real Madrid and is on the lookout for a new club.

    The BBC site are reporting that Kaka wants to leave the Spanish capital, but where would he fit in?

    Could a return to Italy be on the cards? Well, considering bosses at the San Siro - affiliated with the red and black side - said that no deal will be done, then you'd say not.

    What about a return to his native Brazil? Nope, Kaka has been quick to rule out a move back to his homeland as the window is closed.

    The 31-year-old, who is said to be one of the highest earning players in world football, said: The club knows I want to leave and I would like them to help me find a solution for my exit. I cannot go to Brazil because the market is closed, the exit would be within Europe."

    What about the Premier League?

    Kaka's creativity could see him thrive in the middle of Manchester United, who are crying out for an attacking playmaker to fill a Paul Scholes-sized hole.

    Both Chelsea and Tottenham have crammed their midfields full of quality, but there could be a space in the ranks at Arsenal. Words is building that a deal for Yohan Cabaye is on the verge of completion, but the Madrid man is a completely different mould of player, and would offer the Gunners something they don't currently hold, in my opinion.

    Manchester City came close to a deal in the past, but it looks unlikely this time round as they have spend huge amounts already this summer.

    Could we see Kaka in our topflight this season? I hope so.
