"Milan" vice president Adriano Galliani, who is leaving his post, confirmed that in January the club will be joined by CSKA Moscow defender Keisuke Honda.

Rumors about the transfer of the Japanese national team player to the "Rossoneri" have been circulating for a long time and it seems that the footballer will finally arrive in Italy in January.

"Honda will officially become a 'Milan' player on January 3 and he will wear the shirt with number 10," the vice president told journalists.

"At last, we can reveal this information, which is completely true. He will definitely arrive in Milan, but I do not know if he will be able to play on January 6 against 'Atalanta'," added A. Galliani.

The 27-year-old Japanese player joined the Moscow team in 2010. During this time, the defender played 122 matches and scored 28 goals.
