Venlo has found a replacement for Honda

Venlo has brought in Gonzalo Garcia from Groningen on loan until the end of the season. The 26-year-old midfielder is expected to replace Keisuke Honda, who moved to CSKA Moscow earlier this year. The creative midfielder is a product of Real Madrid youth system, and has played for Heerenveen, Heracles and Groningen. The move is partly due to a clash between the player and the coach of his now former team - Ron Jans.
