YEREVAN, JULY 12, ARMENPRESS. French-Armenian football player, world
and Europe champion Youri Djorkaefftalked about Armenian national
football team captain, Manchester United midfielder Henrikh
Mkhitaryan, Armenpress reports citing Sky Sports.

“I have known Henrikh's family for a long, long time. We have always
been connected. They are very, very good people and I often see them
when I'm in Armenia. It's important because there aren't many of us.
We have to support each other”, Djorkaeff told Sky Sports.

“Henrikh is a nice guy who never complains”, he said. “At the
beginning of the season he was not playing, he was not even on the
bench with Mourinho, but game after game he won his position as a
starter. He has always had that determination to challenge himself and
train hard. We are very proud of him in Armenia”.

Youri Djorkaeff said Manchester United needs someone who can change
the game in a second. “That’s Henrikh. I am sure it will be a big
season for him”, Djorkaeff said.
