Manchester United star Henrikh Mkhitaryan "set for January move"October 26, 2016 - 11:20 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan could be bombed out of Manchester United in January — after only one start this season, The Sun revealed. The Armenian flop moved to Old Trafford from Borussia Dortmund for £30million in July. At the time he was considered one of Europe’s most sought-after players. But despite impressive displays in training, the 27-year-old midfielder has failed to convince boss Jose Mourinho. Mkhitaryan picked up a thigh injury on international duty last month and has not played for United since the Manchester derby on September 10. Former United and England midfielder Owen Hargreaves is surprised a player of his quality keeps being overlooked. Hargreaves, 35, said: “I can’t believe he’s not getting a look-in. He’d be a banker in my starting XI. “He had a slow start at Dortmund too and was the players’ player of the year last season. “He scored 23 goals and had 32 assists, which are staggering numbers. “He’s a sensitive guy. It would’ve been perfect had he started off flying but the slow start has probably hit his confidence.” Top stories Armenian gymnast, Olympic bronze medalist Artur Davtyan has reached the finals of the World Cup. Gor Manvelyan has denied reports alleging that he has expressed a desire to one day play for the French national team. Roma midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan is not considering FC Spartak Moscow as his next haven, according to fresh reports. 10 Armenian lifters will compete in the 2021 World Championships scheduled to be held from 7 to 17 December in Tashkent.
