On Thursday afternoon, a couple of Manchester United fans asked Sport Witness to look into a tweet from the official Borussia Dortmund account.
A fan had asked the Dortmund account a question about next season, after certain players left, with others rumoured to be leaving: ‘Hey @BVB, wer soll in der nächsten Saison eigentlich zwischen Weigl und den jungen Sturmläufern verbinden? Gündogan weg, Mkhitaryan weg…’
The club’s official Twitter account responded: ‘Wir haben einen Plan.’ – ‘We have a plan.’
That then led to a couple of Dortmund supporters bickering over whether the club had just inadvertently confirmed that Henrikh Mkhitaryan would be leaving the club.
Several reports in the German and English media have been pushing Mkhitaryan to Manchester United, and the player’s agent, Mino Raiola, has publicly revealed the player wants the move.
Other fans picked it up and it’s inevitably intrigued some Manchester United fans too. It’s probably nothing, the whole transfer saga may be nothing, but it’s certainly intriguing.
