Agent confirms Henrikh Mkhitaryan will leave Borussia Dortmund in summer, alerts Liverpool and Arsenal
The agent of Henrikh Mkhitaryan has revealed the playmaker is looking to leave Borussia Dortmund at the end of the season.
The German club are struggling in the league this season and Jurgen Klopp saw his side suffer another defeat at the hands of FC Augsburg at Signal Iduna Park on Wednesday. They now sit at 16 points from 19 games.
The Armenian international has not managed to score or manage an assist from 14 appearances in the league this season. Mkhitaryan's representative Mino Raiola has admitted the player is keen to leave his current employers in the summer.
"Henrikh wants to leave Dortmund at the end of the season,. We will have to wait and see what we can do," Raiola explained.
The 26-year-old joined Dortmund from Shakhtar Donetsk in the summer of 2013 and signed a four-year deal with the Bundesliga outfit. Before his switch to Germany, Mkhitaryan was strongly linked with a move to the Premier League with Liverpool and Arsenal strongly being interested in his services.
Liverpool and Arsenal are alerted with Raiola's latest comments and the Daily Mail claims the Premier League giants could rekindle their interest in bringing Mkhitaryan to England after the end of this campaign.
Meanwhile, Klopp admitted that Dortmund are doing everything wrong, which is the main reason for their poor form in the league this season. Roman Weidenfeller and Germany World Cup-winner Mats Hummels went to their fans after their latest defeat to Augsburg.
"We can be accused of anything tonight and it is all justified," Klopp explained.
"Battling also means having the courage to take the right decision. We were missing that tonight. It hurts, no doubt. We are doing everything wrong at the moment. We are not making anything of our chances."
Should Dortmund get relegated this season, there could be several high profile departures from the club in the summer. Hummels has been constantly linked with a move to Manchester United, while his compatriot Marco Reus has been on the radar of top European clubs.
