Manchester United are heavily linked with world class players at the moment and once again Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez is in the limelight.
Last month, we covered a report (via Express) claiming that the Red Devils are planning a big money move to hire the services of the former Barcelona attacker.
If the latest reports are anything to go by then Mourinho has himself moved in to secure the signing of Alexis. According to reports (Daily Mail via El Show de Prensafutbol), Jose has personally called Sanchez to talk about his transfer from Arsenal to Manchester United.
The 28-year-old star has been Arsenal’s best player in the current campaign. In 40 appearances, the Chilean international has directly contributed in 40 goals (22 goals and 18 assists).
The Gunners have failed to renew fresh terms with the versatile playmaker, whose current contract will expire in 2018 and he is rated (CIES) around 82.5million euros (£70million).
As per the provided Daily Mail link, even Premier League leaders Chelsea are interested in signing the South American superstar.
United are currently 6th in the table and it seems highly unlikely that they will finish in the top four. Their best chance of qualifying for the Champions League is by winning the Europa League.
Last summer, the Old Trafford club lured Zlatan and Pogba without CL football, still, with Chelsea also interested and capable of paying Alexis huge wages, United will have to qualify for the competition to boost their chances of signing Alexis.,
