The day Mkhitaryan revealed he was an Arsenal fan

A move to the north Londoners is looking increasingly likely and Gunners fans will love what Mkhitaryan said in 2009, when playing for Armenian side FC Pyunik.

"My favourite team is Arsenal," he told 'Uefa.com'. "I like their attacking play and fast style. Moreover, Arsène Wenger puts faith in young players while demanding results at the same time. I like that and want to play there one day."

If certain financial demands are straightened out this month, Mkhitaryan could join the club he's dreamed of playing for since 2009.
