the Rossoneri as "a dream come true" and says he is willing to pitch in
wherever he is needed
Keisuke Honda believes that he can bring a lot to AC Milan and help them rediscover their fine form which saw them finish third in Serie A last season.
The Japan international arrived in Italy on Saturday after signing with the Italian giants following the expiration his contract with Russian side CSKA Moscow.
He is poised to make his debut for the Rossoneri - who sit a disappointing 13th in the Italian top flight - against Sassuolo on January 12 and the midfielder is hopeful he can make a difference to Massimiliano Allegri's ailing side.
"I'm happy to be here and I’m very excited," Honda, 27, told Milan's official website.
"I'm ready to play. I'm looking forward to meeting my new team-mates. I think I can give a lot, something more to the team.
"I've been waiting here for this for a long time. It's a dream come true, AC Milan has always been a legendary club for me, I followed them as a child.
"Football is my life and I hope to play well. I can play in any position and I want to score as well as create goals. I want to play in attack but it doesn't matter where."
Milan return to Serie A action on Monday when Atalanta visit San Siro, but Honda - who is set to have his medical on Sunday - will not feature in the match.
