The 33-year-old Honda is trying to find a new club in Europe after leaving Australia’s Melbourne Victory in May.

Japan legend Keisuke Honda has urged Manchester United and AC Milan to make him a contract offer.

Most footballers put themselves in the shop window for a transfer with their performances on the pitch. But if you’re Keisuke Honda, you do it via Twitter.

The Japanese forward is currently without a club, and has taken unusual steps in order to get himself fixed up. On Friday he tweeted Manchester United, saying: “Give me an offer. I don’t need money but I need to play with great team and great team mate!”.

And now he has taken to Twitter again in an effort to find a new club, this time reaching out to former club AC Milan: “I have always wanted to help you. Call me when you need me!”.

Honda is trying to find a new club in Europe after leaving Australia’s Melbourne Victory in May. He is aiming to continue playing international football after announcing his intention to compete at Tokyo 2020 Olympics as an overage player. Honda shot to fame at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa when his goals helped Japan reach the last 16.

Manchester United haven’t made the greatest start to the 2019/20 season, nor have AC Milan. Two wins, two draws and two defeats in their six matches so far stinks of mediocrity. Needing penalties to beat League One Rochdale with a strong line-up in midweek certainly didn’t help matters.

Meanwhile, the Italian side, for whom he played 92 times between 2014 and 2017, could do with a few new players after a disastrous start to the season. They sit 16th in Serie A having lost their last three matches including a 3-1 defeat to Fiorentina on Sunday. During his peak, though, Honda was at CSKA Moscow for four seasons before signing for AC Milan on a free transfer, as he played 92 times for the San Siro club.
