"As you all know, my contract with Orlando City ends this year. My final decision is not to renew," Kaka told reporters at a news conference with Orlando's chief executive Alex Leitao and majority owner Flavio Augusto da Silva on Wednesday.

Leitao and da Silva thanked Kaka for his service to Orlando and said the club's doors would always be open to the former world player of the year.
