After missing out on a fourth World Cup appearance last year, Kaka was thrilled to break back into Brazil's squad ahead of Russia 2018.
Orlando City captain Kaka revelled in "a big day" after his return to Brazil's national team was announced on Thursday.
The 33-year-old attacking midfielder, who has scored nine goals and notched four assists in 22 MLS matches, thanked Orlando for providing the platform that allowed him to break back into Brazil's squad for friendlies against Costa Rica and United States next month.
Kaka is Orlando's second most-prolific goalscorer this season, while he was named MVP in this year's All-Star match against Tottenham.
