Inter have officially confirmed that Henrikh Mkhitaryan has currently out injured due to a hamstring issue.
The 33-year-old Armenian midfielder signed for the Nerazzurri on a free transfer last month after leaving Roma, adding another experienced veteran to Simone Inzaghi’s squad. Mkhitaryan did not start in the season opener against Lecce but came on in the 57th minute in place of Marcelo Brozovic.
As announced by Inter, medical tests carried out this morning at the Istituto Clinico Humanitas in Rozzano confirmed that Mkhitaryan has a slight muscle injury to his left hamstring. The Armenian’s condition will be monitored on a daily basis, but he’s not expected to return to action for around two to three weeks.
Last season, the 33-year-old made 44 appearances across all competitions for Roma, for a total of 3354 minutes. In that time, he scored five goals and provided nine assists. Worryingly for Inter, Mkhitaryan missed the last four games of the Giallorossi’s Serie A season due to a hamstring injury.
It was a huge mistake to get this guy, he is done and never was that good to begin with.
Garbage signing. Old and finished, broken body.
It means that Asllani will get to play so it’s good news.

Article mentions that he played 3354 minutes last season (not 5 years ago), which is the equivalent of 37 full games. Moreover Roma wanted to keep him so stop writing nonsense.
