Best player award is great honor, but not priority – says Mkhitaryan

YEREVAN, MARCH 24, ARMENPRESS. Henrikh Mkhitaryan says it is a great honor to receive the best player of Armenia award, but doesn’t find it to be priority.

“For me this award wasn’t unique anyhow. I am happy to become Armenia’s best football player once again. I think this award will further give me power to try and do my best in order to receive the award again”, Mkhitaryan told reporters.

Speaking about competition, Mkhitaryan said there always is competition. “It doesn’t matter how many times I’ve received the best player of Armenia title. All my teammates are my friends and my competitors. I try to keep the name of Armenia high in both England and globally. It’s important for me that as much possible people know about Armenia. It is a great honor for me to become the best football player of Armenia, however it’s not a priority goal”, he said.

 

The Football Federation of Armenia bestowed the best player and best coach of the year awards.

Due to busy schedule in the clubs, the players were unable to arrive to Armenia till now to receive their awards.

At the awarding ceremony in the Football Academy, Henrikh Mkhitaryan was awarded with the Golden Football for the 6th consecutive and 7th total time.

Midfielder of the Portuguese Maritimu Gevorg Ghazaryan was second, and Greece’s Xanthi footballer Marcos Pizelli was third.

As reported earlier, the best coach of the year award was bestowed to Shirak FC boss Vardan Bichakhchyan.

Currently the National Football Team of Armenia is training for the upcoming March 26 match versus Kazakhstan.
