Mkhitaryan’s transfer to Arsenal is directly connected to the move to Manchester United of the Gunners’ striker Alexis Sanchez.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan’s agent Mino Raiola has for the first time commented on his possible move. He said that Mkhitaryan’s transfer to Arsenal is directly connected to the move to Manchester United of the Gunners’ striker Alexis Sanchez. Raiola noted that the Mancunians will not sign a contract with Sanchez if Mkhitaryan does not agree to join Arsenal.
After beating Stock City 3-0 on Monday, Jose Mourinho, the manager of the Red Devils, explained why Mkhitaryan hadn’t started.
“It was just a choice of the players that we know, in this moment, they have 100 per cent their heads in Manchester United. I don’t think it’s easy for a player to play when there are doubts about his future,” said the Portuguese coach.
Twitter users and a few websites write that Mkhitaryan’s move to Arsenal is already a reality.
