#4 Mkhitaryan used to live in the club’s training ground during his Shakhtar days

Henrikh Mkhitaryan did not live in an apartment but in the club’s training ground when he was playing for Shakhtar Donetsk. In times where footballers are sometimes known because of their luxurious lifestyle, Mkhitaryan was committed to football and football alone.
Speaking to Armenian newspaper panorama.am in February 2013 regarding his unusual lifestyle, he said, “Since I’ve become something of an idol, I prefer to just concentrate on my football. My team-mates do tease me sometimes though. They even nicknamed me President [of the training ground].”
Henrikh, however, did take up an apartment when he moved to Borussia Dortmund in 2013.
