Henrikh Mkhitaryan: I've joined Man Utd to win trophies

Henrikh Mkhitaryan says he's joined Manchester United to win trophies.

The Armenia captain completed his transfer from Borussia Dortmund earlier this month and impressed during his unofficial debut in the 2-0 friendly win over Wigan Athletic on Saturday, performing as a number 10 at the DW Stadium and later earning praise from his manager.

"It's a very good opportunity to play for United," he said. "Manchester are one of the biggest clubs.

"I am very happy and I will try to do my best to help us win. We will try to do everything to win titles. It will be difficult but let's hope we can have a good preparation and then we will see."
