Arsenal have dropped theirf midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan from the squad that will be travelling to Baku for the Europa League final against Chelsea.
In an official statement on Tuesday, the club said they have no choice but to leave the midfielder at home following security concerns.
“We are very disappointed to announce that Henrikh Mkhitaryan will not be travelling with the squad for our Uefa Europa League final against Chelsea.
“We have thoroughly explored all the options for Micki to be part of the squad but after discussing this with Micki and his family we have collectively agreed he will not be in our travelling party”, Arsenal officials.
There have been concerns over the Armenian’s status in the country for the final in Azerbaijan because of non-existent diplomatic relations between the two Caucasus states, which is due to disputes over the Nagorno-Karabakh region.
