FOOTBALL: Kagawa to Manchester Utd?

Will Dortmund be able to keep him?

According to sources, Manchester United could be keen on Kagawa in the upcoming season. The little Japanese wizard had a assist & goal scoring storm for Dortmund before being injured with a broken foot. If the nipper does sign, it'll make my year, as the man would surely fit in well with the Rooney - Hernandez partnership. Dortmund are understandably keen to retain the playmaker so his asking price could be hefty.

In other Japanese footballing news, Keisuke Honda has recently admitted his preferred league for the future is the La Liga, despite interest from Premier League clubs like Liverpool & Manchester City. Its a thought the superstar may want to reconsider, as his fellow countryman of equal prominence Shunsuke Nakamura, struggled with life at Espanyol.

Bayern Munich are also set to be targeting J-League wonderkid, Takashi Usami. Never seen the 19 year old in action but if it eventuated, it would be an amazing opportunity for the player in a league that has been so good for the Japanese.
