The Giallorossi boss is eager to retain the services of the Armenian playmaker beyond the end of the current season
Roma boss Paulo Fonseca has expressed his desire to sign Henrikh Mkhitaryan on a permanent deal, outlining plans to speak to Arsenal at the end of the midfielder's loan spell at Stadio Olimpico.
Mkhitaryan joined Arsenal in an exchange deal which saw Alexis Sanchez move to Manchester United in January 2018. The 31-year-old scored nine goals in 59 appearances during his first season-and-a-half with the Gunners, but was ultimately deemed surplus to requirements ahead of the 2019-20 campaign.
Roma snapped the Armenia international up on a season-long loan deal back in September, and he has since managed to rediscover the kind of form which saw him emerge as one of the hottest properties in Europe earlier in his career at Borussia Dortmund.
