Henrikh Mkhitaryan Signs With New Agent

HENRIKH MKHITARYAN SIGNS WITH NEW AGENT

16:22 25.04.2013

Armenia and Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan has signed
with Mino Raiola, who has a reputation of brokering big money deal
across Europe and has contacts at many of Europe’s biggest clubs
including Manchester United and Juventus.

But it is Raiola’s close relationship with Liverpool that is of
interest to Mkhitaryan – and the Armenian is keen to secure a switch
to Anfield after making them his number one priority, reports say.

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers is also keen on doing business, as
the player has enjoyed his best campaign yet for Shaktar, scoring 24
goals in 34 matches.

According to metro.co.uk, Mkhitaryan is likely to cost upwards of
£15million and, if successful in getting his client a move, Raiola
stands to pick up a cool £3million on top of that.

Tottenham have previously been linked with Mkhitaryan, but it is
thought that Liverpool are the front-runners.

Raiola has a number of high profile clients and has played an integral
role in careers of Zlatan Ibrahomivoch and Mario Balotelli.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
