FIFA World Cup and Ballon D’or winner Kaka told to Algerian magazine “I have said before that [Brazilian football] hasn’t evolved. If you look closely, other countries are developing and seeking out new training methods and using new technology. Brazil football has rested on its laurels. They have been five time World Cup winners but they continue with the same structure, the same ideas day after day, year after year. And I truly believe that our football must evolve in this sense because there are many positive things we can learn from others.”
