German news outlet, Bild and the agent of Arsenal target Henrikh Mkhitaryan have confirmed that the midfielder has shoved aside an opportunity to extend his stay at Borussia Dortmund.
This development is a good one for the Gunners who have begun negotiations with the Armenian international over a possible switch to the Emirates Stadium this summer.
Wenger is reportedly making a £25million bid for the 27-year-old who he sees as a nice replacement for Alexis Sanchez who could leave the club before the new season kicks off.
Speaking to Bild concerning the contract extension rejection, Railo said, “Why would we sign a contract renewal now?” “Micki has a contract until June 2017 and we are looking at his options for the future.
Chelsea is also after Mkhitaryan but the midfielder prefers Arsenal instead, according to what we have been made to believe.
