"All legal issue have been settled, the contract has been signed,"
he said, adding that "the atmosphere in the team is very positive." "I
was very well received, and I'm glad for it," Henrikh said.
It was Mkhitaryan's choice to wear the shirt #10. "I hesitated between
#22, which had already become dear to me and my fans and #10. Finally,
I decided to choose the latter," he said.
The player said has not talked to head coach Jurgen Klopp yet, but
added he's starting to train with the team today.
Henrikh said Borussia was also his choice. "I think this is a very
important step in my life. I preferred Borussia as it is a strong
club with good players and a good coach. The fans create a fantastic
atmosphere in the stadium. I hope I'll be able to rejoice them. My
objective is to play every match with the team," he added.
At the same time, Henrikh Mkhitaryan thanked Shakhtar, its president,
coaches, especially head coach Mircea Lucescu, his teammates and the
thousands of Shakhtar fans. "Without them I would not achieve what
I have achieved today," Mkhitarayn concluded.
