Fitness coach of “Shakhtyor” (Donetsk) Italian specialist Carlo Nicolini shared his views on the halfback of Armenian national team Henrik Mkhitaryan.
“Henrik Mkhitaryan is a very smart man. This is the case of how he sees the game, and his knowledge of different languages, which helps him to find common ground with teammates. He is a true professional! He started from scratch here – he was neither the best player in Latin America, nor the best scorer of Italy. And he, better than Lucarelli and Castillo together, understands Eastern European football. His other advantage is the respect for the opinion of the coach, the desire to understand Luchesku’s philosophy of football. Henrik realizes that together with “Shakhtyor” he can develop, and knows that it’s an honor to wear the shirt of that club, “- said Nicolini in an interview.
Recall that Mkhitaryan in 13 league matches of Ukraine scored 14 goals and made 5 assists. He is the top scorer of the current Ukrainian championship.
