Arsenal winger Henrikh Mkhitaryan has flown to Roma to finalise a season-long loan to the Serie A side.
The 30-year-old has not started a game for the Gunners since the victory over Newcastle United on opening weekend, with new signing Nicolas Pepe seemingly ahead of him in the pecking order now.
Given first-team football might be hard to come by at Arsenal, Gianluca Di Marzio claim Roma are ready to offer Mkhitaryan a lifeline. The Serie A side want Mkhitaryan on a season-long loan with an option to buy, as they continue their drastic squad upheaval which has already seen them strike loans for Manchester United's Chris Smalling and Chelsea's Davide Zappacosta.
