Mkhitaryan speaks about reasons for leaving Arsenal

Armenian squad midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan has spoken about the reasons for leaving Arsenal, Fourfourtwo reported.

“He paid more attention to tactics, so my role changed,” said Mkhitaryan. “I was starting as a winger, but had to build play with the defensive midfielder. It’s why I couldn’t contribute as many goals or assists. I like to play more freely and move wherever there’s space, but you have to do the job that the manager asks.”

Mkhitaryan moved to Roma on loan during the summer transfer window.
