Arsenal 'want to sell Henrikh Mkhitaryan this summer'

Arsenal are reportedly keen to sell Henrikh Mkhitaryan during this summer's transfer window as they look to raise funds for what is likely to be a difficult market.

The coronavirus pandemic, which has caused havoc across the world of sport, is expected to have a significant impact on club's spending ahead of the 2020-21 campaign.

According to The Mirror, Gunners boss Mikel Arteta is still hopeful of doing business this summer, but the club will have to raise funds via player sales.

The report claims that Mkhitaryan will be available for transfer this summer, with the Armenia international potentially on the market for as little as £10m.

The 31-year-old has spent the 2019-20 campaign on loan with Roma, scoring six times and registering four assists in 20 appearances for the Italian club in all competitions.

The Serie A side are allegedly keen on a permanent deal for Mkhitaryan but have thus far been frustrated in their attempts to agree a price with Arsenal.
