Kaka wants to be a minister
AC Milan playmaker Kaka sees himself becoming an evangelical minister when he quits playing football.
"I would like that a lot," Kaka said in an interview.
"It's a difficult road - you have to study theology and deepen your study of the Bible."
The deeply religious Kaka nearly always raises both of his arms to the sky after he scores goals.
"An evangelical minister reads the Bible and conveys the duties," Kaka said.
"It's not so easy to apply to today's society things that were written thousands of years ago. But that's exactly the job of a minister - to make the teaching of the Bible relevant."
With 10 goals, Kaka was the top scorer last season when Milan won the Champions League.
After his team beat Liverpool in the final, Kaka revealed a T-shirt stamped with the words "I belong to Jesus."
