Despite disappointment with the outcome of his Lazio move, CSKA midfielder Keisuke Honda says he’s still eager to give all he's got to help the Moscow squad succeed.

­On Monday, the Japanese star arrived at CSKA’s training camp in Marbella, Spain after treatment in a Barcelona hospital.

“I’m back with the team,” Honda told the Sport-Express. “Things are getting better, although sometimes I still feel pain. But I hope it will soon pass. I want to join the starting lineup as soon as possible.”

According to Italian media reports, Serie A side Lazio offered the Muscovites €12 million for the 25-yaer-old transfer, but the sum wasn’t enough to satisfy CSKA’s management.   

“I must admit, I wanted to go to Lazio,” the player confessed. “But now it makes no sense to talk about it. I’m with CSKA and I will do my best to help the team. I missed football, and I Intend to return to the game quickly.”

One of Asia’s top footballers, Honda joined CSKA from Dutch club VVV-Venlo in 2010. Due to different health problems he’s made just 47 appearances for the Moscow team, scoring 13 goals.

The Japanese international’s stay may become a significant boost for CSKA, who prepare to take on Real Madrid of the UEFA Champions League later in February.
