Manchester United playmaker Henrikh Mkhitaryan is set for a move away from Old Trafford in January with Inter Milan interested in his signature.

Despite a strong start to the campaign, the Armenian has fallen down Jose Mourinho's pecking order and has been starved of regular first-team minutes.

Mkhitaryan was not even in the match-day squad as Manchester United beat West Brom on Sunday and has not started a game since the defeat to Chelsea on November 5.

Corriere della Sport say Inter Milan are in the market for a midfielder in January

According to Corriere della Sport, Inter are in the market for a midfielder and may look to swoop for the 28-year-old when the winter window opens in the new year.

The Serie A outfit want to bolster that area in their squad and have identified both the United man and former Chelsea star Ramires as possibilities.

Any deal would likely be a loan initially with Inter reluctant to spend beyond their means. However, this could change if they are forced to sell one of their big stars.

Mkhitaryan has shown glimpses of the magic he produced at Borussia Dortmund during his time in the Premier League but has failed to do so on a consistent basis.

Inter fell to third in Serie A after defeat to Udinese on Saturday and may look to strengthen

This has seemingly frustrated Mourinho who has run out of patience, saying before their match at the weekend that every player has their price.

The Armenian has scored just once in the current league campaign but has produced five assists.

Inter could benefit from his creativity as they look to reclaim top spot in Serie A, after falling down to third with a defeat by Udinese at the weekend.
