Soccer: Brazil should have Kaka available for qualifier vs. Peru

Associated Press

SAO PAULO — Kaka has recovered from a left foot injury and will be available to play in Brazil's upcoming World Cup qualifier against Peru.

Brazil coach Dunga did not confirm Kaka as a starter for Wednesday's match, but said the AC Milan player is fit and ready to play.

Kaka missed Brazil's lackluster 1-1 draw against Ecuador in Quito on Sunday, staying in Brazil to treat the injury sustained with AC Milan earlier this month.

Kaka will be available but Dunga won't have Inter Milan right back Maicon, who injured his right thigh in the first half against Ecuador.
