Reports suggest Sanchez has agreed to join Man Utd, but Mkhitaryan is unsure about a move to the Emirates.

It’s believed the 28-year-old has concerns over his wages, the club’s league position and the lack of Champions League football at Arsenal.

Red Devils boss Jose Mourinho admitted he left Mkhitaryan out the squad to face Stoke on Monday evening due to the transfer speculation.

And Old Trafford chief Mourinho claimed he was trying to "protect" the Armenian by leaving him out.

He said: "I would lie if I said it was a pure tactical decision.

“I don’t think it’s easy for a player to play when there are doubts about his future.

"It’s best for him and us, while doubt is in air, to protect him."

Sun Bets spokesman Tim Reynolds said: “Henrikh Mkhitaryan is in a tough situation.

“He’s got unquestionable ability but he’s not really kicked on and nailed a position in the starting XI at Old Trafford.

“And a move to Arsenal could be a fresh start for the midfielder, but the temptation of staying at United and proving the doubters wrong, could be too tempting for him.”
