The way Liverpool are Dealing, Expect Mkhitaryan Next

Liverpool have thus far been able to get all their transfer targets. Having signed four players already, the Reds set their sights on another new signing. Merseysiders have been linked with Shakhtar star Henrikh Mkhitaryan and the way Liverpool are dealing, one can expect Mkhitaryan to come next.
The reds have thus far avoided competition by doing quick business in the transfer market and luring the likes of Toure, Aspas, Alberto and lately Mignolet. They will be hoping to not lose out on perhaps the most important signing of the summer that will be Mkhitaryan.
The versatile midfielder is one of the brightest prospects around and an impressive last season by the Armenian International has attracted interest from top clubs.
Reportedly, Dortmund made an official inquiry about Mkhitaryan but they could not match Shakhtar’s asking price of 25 million pounds.
Mkhitaryan missed training with the Ukrainian club lately and that has fired up rumors of his desire to leave for a bigger challenge next season. The negative point for Liverpool is that they are not in the champions league next season while Dortmund are.
However, Liverpool are always an attractive destination for players and Rodgers is building an exciting project for next season for which Mkhitaryan might as well be very significant.
Having sold Carroll to West Ham United for a sum of 15 million pounds, Liverpool net spending this summer has only been 7 million despite singing four players. This indicates that they still have enough transfer kitty available to sign Mkhitaryan. Adding to that, further sales of deadwood players can help there as well.
Shakhtar have already sold one of their star players in Fernandinho for a heavy price. Whether or not they will budge from their asking price for Mkhitaryan, we shall have to wait and see. However, the way Liverpool are dealing, if they really want Henrikh as reports do suggest then expect them to negotiate a deal that will suit both parties.
25 million asking price seem very high but the Armenian star might just prove to be worth every penny as the quality is inevitable.
