Japanese football legend Hidetoshi Nakata is excited for Keisuke Honda over his success with AC Milan.

Honda is currently Serie A's top scorer.

Nakata told Calciomercato.com: "It wasn't easy for him to adapt in his first year, but he's already doing much better and I hope he can continue like this.

"As for Yuto Nagatomo, he's been in Serie A for so long that we basically consider him Italian now and no longer Japanese!"
