Man Utd transfer news: Alexis Sanchez can join Juventus or Inter Milan but on the condition of reducing wages.
Manchester United can finally get a sigh of relief from Alexis sanche this summer as Inter Milan and Juventus are keen to sign the player.
According a report by Independent, both Italian giants are ready to compete for the player but there is one obstacle.
Considering the wage structure at Serie A, Alexis Sanchez will have to cooperate with less wages at either of any club among the two.
The £500,000 per-week wage for the Chilean International are a huge financial liability for the Red Devils. The 30-year-old forward is the highest earner in the Premier league yet he scored only one goal for his club in this edition of the league.
Thus, proving to be a miserable business by Manchester United by hiring the services of Sanchez at this colossal rate.
Hence, the club is planning to offload the player amid major squad overhaul this summer, but his wage structure is a big obstacle as his contract runs till 2022, a financial burden which Manchester United are not willing to carry for so long.
It is further reported that there have now been concrete meetings between intermediaries and both clubs. Additionally, as mentioned before, both the clubs have clearly asserted that a deal will only be finalized if Sanchez agrees to reduce his financial demands.
Presently, the financial aspect has complicated the affair but on the positive side, Manchester United are able to attract decent prospects for the Chilean International, despite his horrendous exhibits this season.

Sunday I am going to church to pray for Alexis Sanchez to take a pay cut to join Juventus nd revive his career. I hope he can see winning the Serie A nd constantly playing in the CL as a better achievements than ruining his career at United for money… greedy South American
