| Keisuke Honda training at Jurong East |
The stunning recruitment of former Japanese international Keisuke Honda by the soon-to-be-renamed FC Jurong (currently Albirex Niigata (Singapore)) has sent shockwaves through the local football fraternity since the announcement made this morning (10/4).
While marquee signings are nothing new since professionalisation began in 1996, what matters most is the impact the former AC Milan star will make come August.
The league’s history is littered with so-called "impact" players who failed to leave a mark—such as 1990 Cameroon World Cup veteran Émile Mbouh, who turned out for Tiong Bahru United in 1997.
Which other "marquees" can you recall who truly left a lasting impression during their time in Singapore?
(👀: Shingo Nakano, at the background of the snap, would relish the opportunity to partner with the legend)
