The British “Bleacher Report” analyzed the acquisitions of Borussia Dortmund’s summer transfer window, considering the transfer of Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan to the German club as the most unsuccessful and unsuccessful.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan moved to Borussia for a huge fee and his task was to replace Mario Gotze, but he is not able to fully live up to expectations. If we pay attention to the statistics, everything is not so bad. Henrikh participated in 35 official matches in the current season, scoring 9 goals and 9 assists. But there are few matches in which Mkhitaryan could change the outcome of the game through his own actions.
The midfielder scored only 2 goals in the Champions League tournament, standing out in the away games against “Arsenal” and “Zenith”. Stats say that Mkhitaryan scores goals or assists in Bundesliga games when Borussia is already winning by 3 or more goals.
In all other confrontations, Mkhitaryan is unable to help the team at all. Considering his transfer fee, this acquisition can be considered a failure. Of course, the Armenian midfielder is talented and only with hard work will he be able to show himself well in the near future,” the portal writes.
