Man Utd confirm Henrikh Mkhitaryan signing
Manchester United have made a formal announcement on the signing of Borussia Dortmund midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan. The 27-year-old has inked a four-year contract with the Red Devils with the option of a further year.
The Armenian had been heavily tipped for a Premier League move this summer after he expressed his desire to join the Old Trafford outfit.
With BVB releasing a statement over the player's departure last week, it was only a matter time before United completed the necessary formalities with the playmaker.
"I am very proud to join Manchester United, this move is a dream come true for me. I am excited to play for a club with such an illustrious history and hope to be part of it for a long time," Mkhitaryan told the club's official website.
Mkhitaryan, who was previously on the radar of Arsenal and Chelsea, notched 41 goals and 49 assists in his three-year spell at Westfalenstadion.
