Milan star Kaka is officially an Italian citizen after a ceremony in the northern city this afternoon. “I’m honoured,†he said.
The Brazilian international was rewarded with dual nationality today given his peninsula roots and he’s delighted with his new status. “I’m honoured and really am happy,†he underlined. “I’m now Italian and Brazilian. “This will help me in the future and I’m sure it can also be of some use to Milan. I really am Italian in all aspects now and an integral part of this Italian club.†Kaka’s fresh citizenship means that the Rossoneri can register him as an Italian and thus free-up a non-EU spot in their squad ahead of their summer transfer campaign. The 24-year-old, who obviously can’t play for Italy given his Brazilian career, joined the San Siro boys in 2003 from Sao Paulo. He was an instant hit with the fans and is now an integral part of boss Carlo Ancelotti’s plans at the Stadio Meazza. Kaka, a known transfer target for Real Madrid, signed a new Milan contract until June 2011 last summer. |

Pretty sure R10 just got his spanish citizenship... although an EU space is always useful.

If I remember correctly the rule is that we are allowed to sign only one non EU player per year

(IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) as I know in Italy there's not any rule that limits non-EU players. The rule is that teams are allowed to buy only one non-EU player/per season. Correct me if I'm wrong! |
