Roma are already making moves to ensure midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan’s loan switch from Arsenal becomes permanent, Mirror reports.
–
The Armenian, who only spent 18 months at the Emirates, headed for Italy in the summer as he looked to resurrect his career.
–
And now the Italians want to keep the playmaker but several pieces of the jigsaw still need to fall into place as negotiations begin, reports Gazetta dello Sport.
–
Mkhitaryan has struggled since he came to England with Manchester United in 2016.
–
Arsenal are not desperate to keep the midfielder but much will rest on how much they want for the 31-year-old.
–
Roma will also be wary about the length of contract the player requests given his age. The Italians will supposedly rebuff Mkhitaryan if he seeks a three-year deal.
–
Injuries have been an issue for the Borussia Dortmund man meaning he has made just 16 appearances, although he has still scored seven times.
