Borussia Dortmund manager Jurgen Klopp could not hide is excitement at
the unveiling of new signing Henrikh Mkhitaryan according to Goal.com.
The Armenia captain has signed from Ukrainian side Shakhtar Donetsk
for a fee thought to be in the £25 million mark.
The move came to the dismay of Liverpool who had been favourites to
secure his signature. It is understood that Mkhitaryan had a change of
heart and decided he wanted to keep playing Champions League football.
Mkhitaryan will miss the start of the season for the club as he
continues to recover from an ankle injury but Klopp is nevertheless
delighted to have the player join up with the squad.
Klopp claimed that Mkhitaryan fitted the club like an 'arse in a
bucket' and suggested he was exactly what the club needed as they
look to replace Mario Gotze.
Gotze joined Bayern Munich at the end of last season in acrimonious
circumstances after Bayern announced the signing on the eve of
Dortmund's Champions League semi-final game against Real Madrid.
That is understood to have soured relations between the two
Bundesliga giants and is thought to have played some role in why
Polish international Robert Lewandowski did not make a similar move
to Gotze this summer.
