DONE DEAL: Roma complete loan deal for Arsenal midfielder Mkhitaryan

Roma have signed Henrikh Mkhitaryan from Arsenal on a season-long loan.

The Armenian joined Arsenal in January 2018 as part of a swap deal with Manchester United for Alexis Sanchez.

He scored 9 goals in 56 appearances for the Gunners.

"It's a great opportunity for me to begin a new chapter, with a great club," Mkhitaryan said.

"I know what this club is all about and I am sure we can achieve great things together."

Roma have now signed nine players during the summer transfer window.
