Henrikh Mkhitaryan has stated his desire to leave Arsenal and join Roma on a permanent basis once his loan deal expires.
Mkhitaryan moved to the Serie A side on a season-long loan in September and is enjoying his time in the Italian capital.
Roma do not have an option to buy the playmaker at the end of campaign but Mkhitaryan is hopeful something can be done so he can remain at the club for many seasons to come.
'I don't know how long I'm going to stay here,' he told the Futbol with Grant Wahl podcast.
