Manchester United join the race for Alexi Sanchez: the latest

Everything seemed to be set for Alexi Sanchez to be reunited with Pep Guardiola at Manchester City, but now cross town rivals Manchester United have joined the race. In fact Mourinho contacted Wenger and offered Mkhitaryan as part of the deal, a player the French manager is intrigued by. The former Borussia Dortmund midfielder could be heading to London if they can get passed the issues concerning his high wages, at the moment there’s distance between the parties. Should Arsenal and Manchester United reach an agreement both the Citizens and Inter, who were also interested in Mkhitaryan, could be on the outside looking in.
