Manchester United's Alexis Sanchez has joined Inter Milan on a season-long loan. Giving him a welcome, the Italian giants put out a cheeky tweet.
"@Alexis_Sanchez already feeling at ease in his new surroundings(alongside fellow Chilean @bambam9oficial)...#WelcomeAlexis"
The tweet reflects how Sanchez had endured a miserable time at the Red Devil camp since his joining in January 2018. He was reportedly the highest-paid player in the Premier League.
The Chilean scored just five goals in 45 appearances. Sanchez scored just one goal and completed 90 minutes in the Premier League just once last season as he fell behind Lukaku, Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial in the fight for places up front under both Jose Mourinho and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
"Alexis Sanchez is officially an Inter player. The Chilean has joined the Nerazzurri from Manchester United on a loan deal that will last until 30 June 2020," Inter said in a statement.
Sanchez will join former United teammate Romelu Lukaku, who also moved to Italy in a 65-million-euro ($73 million) deal earlier this month.
