Real Madrid want suspended Kaka to return to Spain

Real Madrid: Real Madrid have requested that Brazilian playmaker Kaka return to the club as soon as possible, after learning that he cannot feature in Brazil`s World Cup qualifier against Chile due to suspension, according to AS.

Kaka was harshly booked in the 3-1 win over fierce rivals Argentina in Rosario, ruling him out of Wednesday`s tie in Salvador. His absence from the Brazil line-up will be of little consequence, however, after they secured their place at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa following Saturday`s win. It is understood that Madrid officials have asked the Brazilian Football Federation to allow Kaka to return early to the Bernabeu to give him more time to prepare for Saturday`s trip to Barcelona to take on Espanyol at the Cornell El Prat stadium. If the request is not granted, Kaka will return to the Spanish capital, as planned, on Friday, making his participation in Saturday`s Primera Division tie more doubtful. Goal.com
