Armenian midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan hailed the warm welcome given him by Borussia Dortmund team.

“My teammates’ attitude came as a great help, with winger Kevin Großkreutz already teaching me German,” reviersport.de quoted Mkhitaryan as saying.

Mkhitaryan turned down requests to compare his skills with those of midfielder Mario Götze who left Borussia for Bavaria. “We have altogether different styles. There’s no need to compare us. I’m here to help Borussia achieve new goals,” he said.
