It took Henrikh Mkhitaryan longer to settle at Manchester United than some might have expected, but it would be fair to say that the 28-year-old has developed into a star at Old Trafford.

The 28-year-old has scored five times in eight Europa League appearances for the Red Devils this season, whilst he has managed four goals in 19 Premier League matches during the 2016-17 campaign.

The former Borussia Dortmund attacker appears to be a key part of Jose Mourinho's plans moving forward at Old Trafford, and he will be key to the club's challenge for the Europa League title and a top-four finish in the Premier League in the final weeks of the season.

The Armenian international is also expected to be in the Man United XI that takes to the field against Manchester City in the Premier League clash on Thursday night.

Victory for the Red Devils would see them go above their rivals into the top four, in addition to moving level on points with third-place Liverpool.

On Tuesday afternoon, Mkhitaryan posted a tweet looking ahead to the Manchester derby, and the Man United supporters were in no doubt as to the attacker's importance this week.
