Soon pressing flesh, leader from Mycenae? That's him (9)
I believe the answer is:
agamemnon
'him' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'soon pressing flesh leader from mycenae?' is the wordplay.
'soon' becomes 'anon' (synonyms).
'pressing' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'flesh' becomes 'game' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'leader from' says to take the initial letters (I've seen 'leaders from' mean this).
The initial letter of 'mycenae' is 'm'.
'game'+'m'='gamem'
'anon' placed around 'gamem' is 'AGAMEMNON'.
'that's' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for agamemnon that I've seen before include "Gk. leader against Troy" , "Greek king murdered by his wife Clytemnestra" , "King who led the Greeks in the Trojan War" , "Fabled king soon" , "Legendary hero" .)
