Panorama, Armenia

Armenian national football team and Arsenal midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan spoke about his previous football clubs and the Arsenal transfer in an interview with FourFourTwo.

The Armenian international noted that it was thanks to his father that he got interested in football, reports Panorama.am.

“When I went to Brazil at 13 years old it was not easy being far away from your home, your parents and family, but, of course, the only thing you had to understand [was] that if you wanted to become a football player, you had to handle it,” he said.

Mkhitaryan also talked about the days spent in Metallurg and Shakhtar Donetsk.

Speaking about his transfer to Arsenal, the footballer said he was eager to play for the club since he wanted to enjoy playing attacking football. 

"I will try my best for the club to achieve as much as we can. I want to leave my name in Arsenal as a legend because it’s not easy to come to a team where you have been dreaming of playing for since you were a child," Mkhitaryan said.
