To be one of the top footballers, it takes more than just skill. As peculiar as it may sound, it also makes a difference when you're born.

So it's all off then, Kaka has shunned the millions on offer to switch the San Siro for Eastlands, turned his back on an alleged £500,000 a week ( A measly take home salary of £260,000 per week after tax) and declared his love for AC Milan.
