KAKA didaftarkan pelatih timnas Brazil, Dunga untuk pertandingan-pertandingan persahabatan melawan Argentina dan Jepang, setelah penyerang Cruzeiro Ricardo Goulart harus dicoret karena cedera.
Kaka, Pemain Terbaik Dunia 2007, kembali setelah 18 bulan absen membela timnas, tidak masuk tim untuk Piala Dunia di bawah pendahulu Dunga, Luiz Felipe Scolari.
Sang pengatur permainan tidak memperkuat Selecao sejak Maret 2013, ketika Scolari memasukkan dirinya untuk pertandingan persahabatan melawan Rusia dan Italia, seperti dilansir Yahoo Sports.
Mantan bintang AC Milan dan Real Madrid Kaka (32), saat ini dipinjam Sao Paulo dan tahun depan akan bermain untuk tim Liga AS, Orlando.
Konfederasi Sepak Bola Brazil (CBF) juga mengungkapkan bahwa Dunga telah memanggil bek Inter Nilan Juan, setelah bek tengah Paris Saint Germain Marquinhos mengalami cedera paha saat membela klubnya di pertandingan Liga Champions, ketika PSG menang atas Barcelona pada Selasa.
Brazil akan terbang ke Asia pada Sabtu untuk menjalani tur dua pertandingan, di mana juara dunia lima kali akan menghadapi finalis Piala Dunia Argentina di Beijing pada 11 Oktober, dan Jepang di Sengapura tiga hari kemudian.
KAKA is back with Brazil's national team after an absence of more than 18 months.
Coach Dunga on Friday called up the playmaker to replace injured Cruzeiro midfielder Ricardo Goulart for the match against Argentina on Oct. 11 in Beijing and against Japan on Oct. 14 in Singapore.
The 32-year-old Kaka, a member of Brazil's squad at the 2002, 2006 and 2010 World Cups, hadn't been called up to the Selecao since a friendly against Russia in March last year, when Luiz Felipe Scolari was in charge.
Kaka was Brazil's main star at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, in Dunga's first stint as coach of the national team. He had been playing well with AC Milan before the 2014 tournament but was left out of the squad by Scolari.
The game against Argentina is dubbed the Super Classic of the Americas, and is organized annually by CONMEBOL, the governing body of football in South America. Brazil won it in 2011 and 2012.
The matches in Asia will be Brazil's third and fourth games since Dunga's return as coach after a disappointing World Cup under Scolari on home soil. Brazil beat Colombia 1-0 and Ecuador by the same score this month in friendlies in the United States.
