Brazilian midfielder Kaka has suffered a heavy blow to his left foot but it is not broken, his club AC Milan said on Sunday. The playmaker, who was injured during Saturday's 1-1 Serie A draw with Reggina, looks almost certain to miss Brazil's friendly with Italy on Tuesday and local media said he was a big doubt for next Sunday's derby with Inter Milan.
"Kaka reported a trauma to his left foot. The checks made after Milan-Reggina did not show any kind of fracture," Milan said in a statement after the player underwent tests at hospital.
He scored a 67th-minute penalty to give a lacklustre Milan a point at home to bottom club Reggina but soon asked to be substituted after taking a knock.
