Kaka has taken a swipe at Italian football after claiming he is having more fun in La Liga following his summer move to Real Madrid.

The Brazil star joined the Spanish giants in a £59million deal after spending six seasons in Serie A.

"Madrid is a great club," explained Kaka. "I could have gone to any team if it was a matter of money, but I always dreamed about playing here.

"Calcio (Serie A) isn't as strong as it used to be before the corruption cases. The tax matter also plays a role.

"Football there is very tactical and it taught me a lot, but I have a lot more fun now."
