Brazil legend Kaka has defended Neymar amid the criticism levied upon him by some of the country’s former players. The Selecao endured another World Cup disappointment after they were ousted in the quarter-final by Belgium and shortly after, most of the blame was placed on Neymar despite the forward contributing two goals.

Speaking to Omnisport, Kaka felt that the criticism towards Neymar was disproportionate and believes the attacker had a good campaign at the age of 26, he said: “This search for the one to blame is what I don't agree with too much. Brazil lost. It wasn't Neymar who lost.

Ricardo Kaka and Ronaldinho Gaucho are 2 of the greatest Brazilian footballers in modern times.

Each one of them have lifted numerous titles with different clubs and with the Brazilian national football team as well.

The future of Brazilian midfielder Kaka in the national team squad has been speculated a lot due to the age and injury concerns of the midfielder.

However, it seems that manager Luiz Felipe Scolari is more concerned about his form rather than other attributes. He was recently present at the San Siro in order to witness Kaka playing in the Milan derby. AC Milan have been very poor this season and it was not surprising that they did not get a positive result in a match. They lost 1-0 and they have slipped further lower in the table.

Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho has said that there is every possibility that star Brazilian midfielder Kaka could leave the club in the summer.
