It sounds like Keisuke Honda is coming to Seattle, and, whether he joins before the season or in June after AC Milan’s season is done, the Japanese midfielder will be a big signing for the Sounders.

Strengths: Honda is, first and foremost, a playmaker. He wants to get on the ball and find someone in the final third to move it on to.
