Manchester United have been linked with an audacious move for Arsenal forward Alexis Sanchez after reports that Memphis Depay could already be on his way out of Old Trafford.
Louis Van Gaal is thought to have contacted Arsenal regarding a possible deal for the Chilean international hotshot, with Van Gaal telling Sanchez he would be the ‘cornerstone’ of his Manchester United team; something I am sure he told Memphis Depay when he signed. Look how that has worked out so far.
Sanchez has been a revelation since joining the Gunners last summer from Spanish giants Barcelona. He was sensational last season for Arsenal, scoring bundles of goals, all whilst entertaining the crowd with his work ethic and tricks.
He has already netted seven times this term, proving his first campaign in the Premier League was no fluke. This form has clearly impressed Louis Van Gaal, who wants him to join up with him in Manchester.
It is thought that it would take a fee in the region of 70m Euros to prize the forward away from The Emirates; is he worth that much?
This would not be the first time a player has made such a switch. Robin Van Persie made the move when Sir Alex Ferguson was manager. Could it happen again?
