Man Utd have 'changed Mkhitaryan'
Henrik Mkhitaryan's agent believes his client's style of play has changed since moving to the Premier League.
The Armenian made the switch from Borussia Dortmund to Manchester United for approximately £30m last summer after three seasons in the Bundesliga but struggled to adapt to English football.
The attacker was absent for several weeks as manager Jose Mourinho insisted he must work on learning what was required to be a success in his new league.
Although Mkhitaryan is currently out injured, in recent weeks he has begun to show the form that made him Bundesliga player of the year for 2015/16 and Minos Raiola feels his adaption is almost complete.
“You have to say that he showed his class in Germany,” he said. “But I now see an even more aggressive determined player than in Germany.
“He was more elegant but now he is more aggressive.
“That’s what a player in the Premier League needs to be when you don’t have the ball.”
