Inter Milan have confirmed the permanent signing of Chilean winger Alexis Sanchez from Manchester United.
Alexis Sanchez joined Inter on a season-long loan deal last summer, and had a difficult start to life at Milan coupled with a knee injury which kept him out for 3 months. But he has been reinvigorated since lockdown, scoring 2 goals and providing 8 assists which helped Inter finish second, missing out on the title by just a point. This post lockdown form convinced Inter to buy Sanchez permanently and helped United get rid of his hefty wages.
Sanchez joins Inter Milan on a free transfer after Inter managed to stuck an agreement with United regarding his remaining contract. Sanchez has signed a three year contract, keeping him at the club until 2023.
Sanchez made in total of 45 appearances for Manchester United, scoring just 5 goals. Some of his rare best performances in the red shirt was providing 2 assists against Man City in that dramatic 3-2 derby win in April 2018 and scoring the opening goal against Spurs in the FA Cup semi-finals.
A huge relief for Manchester United as they finally got rid of Alexis. His departure not only sweeps his wages off the books, but prevents from having any disruption of such a peaceful dressing room of United. Best of luck for the future and may you be a grand success at Inter, Alexis. Hopefully, see you soon in the final of the Europa League.
