Henrikh Mkhitaryan to retire after Inter – no return to Armenia or move to Saudi Arabia

Henrikh Mkhitaryan has confirmed that he will retire from football after his current contract with Inter Milan expires, emphasizing that he has no plans to return to the Armenian championship and is not interested in transfers for money.

In an interview cited by La Repubblica, the midfielder said, “I don’t want to retire with the regret of having done it too soon. After Inter, I’m done. Moreover, I don’t want to lower the level. I won’t go back to playing in Armenia. And destinations like Saudi Arabia don’t interest me. With all due respect, I love football for the game, not for money. When I wake up, I want to train and show what I’m worth.”
