Kaka was picked for Brazil’s roster for next month’s exhibition game against Colombia at the Meadowlands along with Neymar.
Barcelona right back Daniel Alves, recovered from a left thigh injury, also was selected for the November 14 match at MetLife Stadium – the 1,000th game in Brazil’s history.
Kaka, relegated to a reserve role at Real Madrid, returned to the national team last month for the first time since the 2010 World Cup.
Coach Mano Menezes also selected Chelsea playmaker Oscar and Paris Saint-Germain defender Thiago Silva.
“It’s very important to be able to keep picking the same squad,” Menezes said on Tuesday. “I think the national team is on the right track to begnext year in good position to compete in the Confederations Cup, which will give us a better idea of where we are because we will be playing top-level nations. Hopefully we will keep improving until then.”
Brazil is missing injured defenders Marcelo of Real Madrid, Alex Sandro of Porto and Dede of Vasco da Gama.
Daniel Alves missed the last two exhibitions and was sidelined for nearly three weeks after pulling his left thigh during Barcelona’s 2-2 tie against Real Madrid in the Spanish league.
