After the Champions League match against Monaco, Inter Milan midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan gave a brief interview to an Armenpress correspondent in the mixed zone. During the conversation, the Armenian footballer admitted that he does not rule out the possibility of ending his career in his homeland.
It is worth noting that Inter won 3-0, with Mkhitaryan playing the entire match and contributing to one of his team’s goals.
Possible return to the Armenian championship
When asked whether he was considering finishing his career at one of the Armenian clubs, Mkhitaryan answered with a hint of intrigue:
— Is this question just for you, or will it be published? — the footballer inquired.
— Of course, it will be published. Moreover, in recent years, Armenian clubs have achieved some success in European competitions. Several players have already returned or are in the process of returning. For example, Varazdat Haroyan, — the journalist explained.
— In football, nothing can be ruled out, — Mkhitaryan responded, confirming that such a possibility is theoretically open.
At the moment, the 36-year-old midfielder is focused on playing for Inter. His contract with the Italian giant runs until the end of next season, but it includes an extension option.
— I have the opportunity to extend my contract for another year. If both parties reach an agreement at the end of the current contract, it will be automatically renewed, — Mkhitaryan explained.
