Mkhitaryan likely to stay at Inter as club makes rare policy exception

Inter Milan owners Oaktree are reportedly ready to let the club management offer Henrikh Mkhitaryan a new contract, making an exception to the club’s new policy, sempreinter.com writes.

Oaktree’s new policy focuses on lowering the squad’s average age. Additionally, they’re reducing long-term commitments to players in the twilight of their careers.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan has less than six months left to run on his current contract. Furthermore, the Armenian midfielder turned 37 in January. As such, Inter had little interest in offering him a new deal until recently. However, the situation now appears to have changed, and Mkhitaryan is likely to remain at San Siro.
