Inter Milan could hand midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan a contract extension until the end of June 2025 – with the option of an additional season, SempreInter.com reports, citing Quotidiano Sportivo.

At the moment, Mkhitaryan’s contract with Inter runs out at the end of next June.

The Armenian international signed a two-year deal with the club last summer to join on a free transfer from Roma.

Mkhitaryan will turn 35 during the current season. However, he has shown few signs of slowing down.

On the contrary, Mkhitaryan has been in excellent form.

The 34-year-old has been a key player in the Nerazzurri’s starting eleven under Simone Inzaghi at the start of the season, as he had been throughout last campaign.

Mkhitaryan had played a key role in Inter’s run to last season’s Champions League final.

Given Mkhitaryan’s form and continued importance to the team, Inter do not see his age as a problem in the least.

The Nerazzurri want to extend the Armenian’s deal.

According to Quotdiano Sportivo, Inter would likely offer Mkhitaryan very similar wages to those which he is currently on.

At the moment, the 35-year-old earns €3.8 million net per season. This is the contract that he signed when he joined the Nerazzurri on a free transfer last summer.

Then, there would be the matter of a duration of a new deal.

Reports have so far suggested that Inter want to offer Mkhitaryan a one-year extension. Meanwhile, the Armenian has reportedly asked for a two-year deal.

The parties could meet somewhere in the middle.
