Liverpool have opened talks with CSKA Moscow for star Keisuke Honda.
Nippon Sports says the Reds have commenced negotiations over the 12 million-rated playmaker with his current club CSKA Moscow.
Honda is also reportedly a target for AC Milan so, should Liverpool capture him, it would represent quite a coup for the Anfield club.
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is also a big fan of Honda and recently remarked: "When they (Japan) 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 (World Cup) so far."
