Japanese International Keisuke Honda Rules Out Liverpool Move


Japanese international Keisuke Honda is the absolute star player at Eredivisie side VVV at the moment, and his outstanding performances for the Dutch side haven't gone unnoticed by the rest of Europe.

The attacking midfielder is continually being linked with a number of clubs, with Wolfsburg, Liverpool, Ajax and PSV all reportedly interested in signing Honda.

However, the youngster has now made it clear that he is not yet ready to leave VVV for a move abroad, thus excluding Liverpool and Wolfsburg as his possible new destination.

"I'm extremely happy with life in the Netherlands. The people are friendly and it's nice and quiet over here. Therefore, I'm not leaving Holland for a club abroad," Honda quoted as saying by Eredivisie Live.

VVV aren't reluctant to let go of their star player, but have set a hefty €10 million asking price for the 23-year-old. The Venlo side's financial demands will probably prove to be too much for PSV and Ajax, meaning that Honda could stay at VVV after all.
