Manchester United’s new No 7, Alexis Sanchez wants to leave the club – according to the latest reports.
Alexis Sanchez moved to Old Trafford in January but since then the Chilean has been constantly underperforming for the club.
People chose to spare him during the second half of the previous season citing reasons that he was tired with so much football.
But come the new season, nothing much has changed and the fans are now slowly starting to raise their voices against Alexis Sanchez.
Now even Jose Mourinho has chosen to make some tough calls by benching Alexis Sanchez in two consecutive matches and playing Anthony Martial in his place.
The Chilean came on a substitute in both those games but recent reports are suggesting that he is unhappy with the treatment from the manager.
A report in The Times claimed that the forward wants to move out of Old Trafford and that his agent is ready to start talks with other clubs.
And these rumours were further fueled when the Chilean was not present for training on Monday following which rumours have started surfacing that Alexis Sanchez will not feature against Juventus.

Jose Mourinho has now chosen to strip off that superstar label from Alexis Sanchez’s shoulders and the manager is clearly making his selections based on his performances.
Many people still feel that Alexis Sanchez will come good but the Chilean has a hefty wage structure at the club so every week he fails to perform, Man United are virtually throwing hundreds of thousands of pounds into the drain.
