Arsenal boss Wenger will compete with Liverpool for Keisuke Honda

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is keeping tabs on CSKA Moscow striker Keisuke Honda.

The Japan international is expected to leave Russian football in the summer and has been linked with Arsenal and Liverpool.

Wenger is a big fan of Honda and said during the World Cup: "When they get the ball they can give it to Honda - and the magic starts.

"When they get that genius Honda playing up front, he has shown what a top class player he is. For me he's the best performer of the competition so far."
