Yes, you read that right! Ricardo Kaka comes in at fourth on this illustrious little list. It shouldn’t come across as a shock to the savvy as most would know that he was at his peak as a player during a time when Social Media outlets had started their impressive bloom. The world was just getting hooked onto these social media platforms and from the look of things so was Kaka.

The numbers on Facebook are a respectable 32.25 million followers liking his official page on the platform. That accounts for most of his following online with his 24.6 million Twitter followers backing that number to make the numbers look reasonably strong for the Brazilian stalwart.

The problem, however, lies somewhere else. The Brazilian attacker has his numbers south of 10 million on Instagram. With a 7.6 million follower base on Instagram, Kaka ends up with a total number of 64.45 million followers across the board.

The Instagram phenomenon is a more recent affair and it seems rational that Kaka may have conquered the follower scene on Instagram had it started earlier but never mind that, it is fantastic to see the childhood sweetheart of many, still pulling strings online.
