Manchester United, Mourinho open to Sanchez: "He is a phenomenal player, I won't say any more"

After Manchester United's surprise entry into the race for Alexis Sanchez with an important offer for the Chilean forward, Jose Mourinho confirmed the club's interest during his press conference on Friday. Here are Mourinho's comments on what has become the biggest in the January transfer window: “At a general level what I can say is that with the Manchester United board we do not believe a lot in the January market. What we believe is there are some players in the football world where if you have a chance to sign them then you have to try. I don’t think it is correct to say things about Alexis Sanchez. All I can say is that Sanchez is a phenomenal player, apart from that, an Arsenal player, and I feel I shouldn't say much more than this."
