Japan international Keisuke Honda has said he will leave AC Milan when the Serie A season ends next weekend. After scoring with a free kick in Milan's 3-0 win over Bologna on Sunday, Honda posted on Twitter in Italian: "Dear Milanisti, thank you. Thank you for these 3 1/2 years which were a constant challenge but which permitted me to improve as a man." Honda added: "I will leave Milan at the end of this season but I hope to see you again soon, perhaps in a different role than a player. In the meantime I will continue to dedicate myself day after day to reach my goals." The 30-year-old Honda appeared in only seven Serie A matches this season, with one goal. Meanwhile, Milan announced on Monday that Argentina defender Mateo Musacchio was close to a move from Villarreal.
