Kaka has been kept out of the team under Jose Mourinho, who prefers functional play to players with flair.
With Cristiano Ronaldo a must pick though, Mourinho has sidelined the brilliant Brazilian.
“I owe him a lot”, said the Brazilian.
“He is always behind me after my injuries.
“He came to me after the match against Ajax and was the first to congratulate me on my good play.
“Partly because of Perez, I decided to honour my contract at Real. He’s a great person often portrayed in a negative light by the media.”
