Real Madrid coach Pellegrini: Kaka looks injury free

Real Madrid coach Manuel Pellegrini says Kaka is in good shape.

The Brazilian has not featured for a month as he recovered from a groin strain.

"Kaka is already good, he's trained with us since Wednesday and the injury has settled down. But, being out for a month, he has to pick up the pace," said the Chilean coach.

On Rafael van der Vaart, who has filled in for Kaka during the Brazilian's absence, Pellegrini added: "He is very important."

"Van der Vaart is very important, but with Kaka he played very good games too, what is important is that we have our players fully fit."
