Arsenal midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan is reportedly set to miss the team’s UEFA Europa League clash with Qarabag on Thursday.
According to Mattias Karen of ESPN, the Armenian will not travel with the rest of the squad due to his nation’s ongoing conflict with Azerbaijan, where the game will be played.
It’s added that any Armenian looking to enter the country needs to apply for a permit, although Mkhitaryan has opted against seeking one. Karen noted that the player missed a match in Azerbaijan in 2015 for the same reason when he played for Borussia Dortmund.
