Ricardo Kaka (2007)

Then

Brazil superstar Ricardo Kaka is the last player other than Messi and Ronaldo to win this prestigious individual award. During his spell at AC Milan, Kaka was quite simply the best attacking midfielder on the planet.

Capable of gliding past opponents effortlessly, Kaka was capable of picking out incisive passes and scoring crucial goals. The Brazilan’s finest season was arguably the 2006/07 season when he almost single-handedly inspired Milan to the Champions League title in 2007.

A true number 10 who was capable of creating something out of nothing, Kaka’s many injury concerns and his subsequent move to Real Madrid saw his from taper off.

Now

After his ill-fated spell at Real Madrid, Kaka made an emotional return to former team AC Milan before finally making a move to MLS side Orlando City. The Brazilian number 10 still plies his trade for Orlando City and he was one of their top performers last season where he scored 9 goals and grabbed 10 assists in 24 appearances.
