Arsenal have been keeping tabs on Borussia Dortmund attacking midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

The 26-year-old joined the Bundesliga giants from Shakhtar Donetsk in July 2013 and firmly established himself as an important member of Jurgen Klopp’s starting eleven.

However, Dortmund have struggled this season and it was reported that the Armenia international had grown unhappy with the situation at Signal Iduna Park.

Linked with a number of clubs in the January transfer window, his agent Mino Raiola has put those interested on alert by confirming his clients wishes to leave Dortmund earlierthis year, saying: “Henrikh wants to leave Dortmund at the end of the season,” Raiola was quoted as saying by Bild.

However, Raiola has now said different: “Henrikh is feeling very well at Dortmund.”

That is not likely to stop Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger from making his interest concrete in the summer transfer window as he is liking of the Armenian continues to grow.
