Arsenal fans react as Man United sign Henrikh Mkhitaryan
The Armenian midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan had been linked to Arsenal but is now a Manchester United player.
The Red Devils have secured the services of Henrikh Mkhitaryan from Borussia Dortmund on a four-year deal with the option of a further year.
The 27-year-old is the club’s third summer acquisition following the arrival of Eric Bailly and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Prior to the Euro 2016 – the Gunners snapped up Granit Xhaka, launched a bid for Jamie Vardy, and were in pole position to lure the Dortmund ace to Emirates.
The north Londoners supporters went into painful meltdown on Twitter, when it was announced that Henrikh Mkhitaryan has completed his move to Old Trafford.
Here how Gooners reacted on Twitter to the United’s latest signing…!
Honestly, I’m not gutted we didn’t sign Mkhitaryan. Our midfield is the best in the league WHEN THEY ARE ALL FIT #AFC

Walcott and Ox’s salaries combined would have taken care of Mkhitaryan’s. We don’t just want to let go of this Wenger project #afc

United fans are all deluded, CL didn’t have anything to do with mkhitaryan choosing United over Arsenal it’s all about the money

It’s going to be Mkhitaryan vs KDB next season. Neither are anywhere near Mesut Özil.
