KAKA may be the man to fire Manchester City to glory but it will be nothing compared to the impact he has already had on millions of people.

The AC Milan star has given the green light to a staggering £243million switch to Eastlands.


But the Brazilian says football plays second fiddle in a life which has been devoted to Christianity.


Just weeks ago he became involved with the Billy Graham organisation in a TV campaign which had an astonishing effect in his homeland. It was nationally reported that:


-Hundreds of people were freed from demonic possession.

-Hardened criminals turned to Christianity in their thousands.

-Many more were cured of booze and drug addictions.

-A former voodoo princess turned to Christ.


As the campaign launched, Kaka told millions: "I truly cannot imagine my life without Christ.


"Everything I have accomplished, everything I have done in my life was because God has a plan and purpose for my life.


"The Bible says He will do more than we ever thought or imagined, and this is truly how it has been.


"If God wasn’t in my life, then my life certainly would not be like this."


The Brazilian’s faith in God has been broadcast across the world via an iconic picture of him on his knees celebrating a goal and showing a T-shirt which proclaims, ‘I belong to Jesus.’

Kaka, 26, has won a World Cup and the Champions League as well as been named FIFA World Player of the Year...

He said: “If things happen it’s because God has prepared me. God has great things for us. If it’s God’s will that I be there, there I will be.”
