Borussia Dortmund winger Henrikh Mkhitaryan is reportedly eyeing a move to Italy in the summer with the reigning Serie A champions Juventus FC even as several other top flight Italian clubs are interested in acquiring his services next season.

In a recent interview asking him about his potential future with Thomas Tuchel in Dortmund, the 27-year-old Armenia international had refused to disprove a potential summer exit, disclosing that anything is possible and implying that he will just "cross the bridge when he gets there".

"It's been a great season for Borussia and I want to give my all for this club. I am happy here but everything can change rather quickly for a footballer," said Mkhitaryan during an interview with Gazzetta World as reported by 90Min. "Anything is possible in life, and you never know. That is why I won't say anything about Juve or other teams. We'll see what happens this summer."

"The most important thing is picking the right club where I can give my all," he added.

Mkhitaryan's cryptic response has instigated a lot of recent football transfer rumors linking him to the four-straight Serie A winners.

However, aside from Juve, English Premier League squads Liverpool FC and Arsenal FC are also said to be interested in acquiring the 5-foot-10 attacking midfielder this summer, although he allegedly prefers to play in the Serie A more than in the other top football leagues in the world.

Mkhitaryan has scored 10 times in 26 appearances for the Borussians in the Bundesliga this season. He has also had 20 goals in a total of 42 appearances in all competitions for BVB and is still looking to add to those numbers as the current season winds down.

He is currently no. 11 in the German top flight's top goal scorers of the season, only a goal behind SV Darmstadt 98's Sandro Wagner and FC Cologne's Anthony Modeste who are tied in the ninth and 10th spots.
