Phil Neville: Mkhitaryan would be fantastic for Arsenal

15:12   18 January, 2018

Former Manchester United player Phil Neville commented on possible transfer of Armenian midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan to Arsenal. 

“I can see Henrikh going to Arsenal and being a fantastic signing for them. If Arsenal sign Mkhitaryan and Aubameyang, Arsenal may become a better team, because they will have two really good players. We didn’t see the best of Mkhitaryan at United. I’m a massive fan of him. We saw glimpses this season, but I didn’t think he would be in Jose’s starting XI. He needs to go to a club where he will be allowed to flourish and maybe Arsenal is that club. I think it is a sensational deal for United,” he told BBC Radio 5 Live .

As reported earlier, Mkhitaryan’s transfer is a part of the deal on transfer of Arsenal midfielder Alexis Sanchez. The Chile midfielder will sign a 4.5-year contract with MU with an annual salary of 14 million pounds.
