Henrikh Mkhitarya, one of the best players in the German Bundesliga, has joined Manchester United for a little above 30million Euros, Borussia Dortmund have announced. However the player still has to undergo a medical and discuss personal terms before a final deal.A Dortmund statement read: “After intensive discussions BVB have complied with the wishes of the Armenian national team player to join Manchester United.”
Mkhitaryan is the captain of Armenia national team and he joined Dortmund in 2013 from Shakhtar Donetsk for £23.5m.
Dortmund chief executive, Hans-Joachim Watzke rationalised the decision to let him go in the statement: “Manchester (United) made us an enormously lucrative offer. Had we rejected it the player would have left in 2017 without a fee and we would have just delayed the issue for a year.”
Last season, Mkhitarya scored 18 goals and provided 25 assists for Dortmund.
