RIO DE JANEIRO, June 14 -- Brazil coach Mano Menezes said on Tuesday that Kaka wanted to be left out of the Copa America squad in order to have more time to regain his form following knee surgery.
Kaka underwent left knee surgery earlier this year and Menezes said the Brazilian star would rather rest and focus on properly preparing himself for next season with Real Madrid so he can try to play at a high level again.
According to Menezes, Real Madrid defender Marcelo was also left out because he recently asked to be released from the squad citing an injury he had not actually sustained.
