Manchester United midfielder and captain of the Armenian national team Henrikh Mkhitaryan could reportedly be loaned out to Inter Milan in January, The Express says citing Italian media reports.

Mkhitaryan has been frozen out of Jose Mourinho’s first-team plans and has found himself excluded from the match day squads.

The 28-year-old has found himself linked with a return to Borussia Dortmund.

But Italian paper Gazetta dello Sport claim Inter are monitoring the Armenian’s situation.

They say Inter want to secure a loan deal, however they can’t commit to buying him in the summer.

As things stand, the Serie A giants can’t spend in the next two windows due to UEFA’s Financial Fair Play regulations.
