one step at a time... thank you again for all the love & support,” the Armenia international commented on top of the photo.

Due to his injury, Mkhitaryan will miss the Armenia national team’s Euro 2016 qualification-round group match against Serbia, which will be played on October 11 in capital city Yerevan. His recovery is expected to take about four weeks.
