Orlando City signing Kaka is set to make his loan debut for Sao Paulo on Saturday.
Kaka left AC Milan for Orlando earlier this month, but will play the next six months on-loan with Sao Paulo.
"We were very excited seeing Kaká play the end of the season with Milan, and we hope he can make a difference, as he is a player that can also guide [teammates]," São Paulo head coach Muricy Ramalho said.
"We can see in training that he has a way of dealing with his colleagues, guiding them well, and this is critical because our great leader [goalkeeper Rogerio Ceni] is far away [on the field] in goal and we need to have someone on the field to guide, and in that sense he shows that quality."
