Keisuke Honda: Learning Italian helping AC Milan form

Keisuke Honda says learning Italian has helped him settle at AC Milan.

The striker has been outstanding for the Rossoneri this season.

"I'm studying Italian, and I try to talk, as well as relying on the person [translator] in front of me.

"When I came here [to Italy] I had to change my style a bit to fit in.

"It's a different culture, and there are many differences. I have my own particular style, and I think people respect that, just as I respect Italian style.

"I've learned to appreciate Italian culture. Let's just say there's mutual respect."
