{SPORT ZONE} ~ALEXIS AGREES £14M-A-YEAR MAN UTD CONTRACT
Alexis Sanchez has agreed a deal worth £14 million a year after tax to sign for Manchester United on a contract until the summer of 2022, claims the Daily Telegraph.
United appear to have won the race to sign the Arsenal attacker after Manchester City ended their interest in the Chile international, who is out of contract at the end of the season.
Jose Mourinho’s side are now waiting on Henrikh Mkhitaryan to accept a move to Arsenal before finalising the capture of Alexis on a four-and-a-half year contract.
Sanchez was heavily linked with Manchester City during the past summer transfer window and he was reportedly interested in reuniting with his former manager Pep Guardiola at the Etihad Stadium.
But Jose Mourinho’s side quickly offered a much better package to the 29-year-old and to his club – which Guardiola’s side were not willing to match.
It was also made known that apart from the high wages, Sanchez also agreed to join Manchester United due to his high chances of getting regular game time at Old Trafford.
