Over two years later, however, and things have gone in the complete opposite direction. Instead of starring for United, he failed. As a result, the 31-year-old was slowly integrated out of the team before joining Inter Milan on loan last summer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Since swapping Manchester for Milan, S\u00e1nchez has looked more like the feared, creative winger often seen driving at defences for Arsenal. The Chile international has done more than enough to persuade Conte to pursue a permanent move this summer. His post lockdown form has seen him score three times.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FabrizioRomano\/status\/1290351325914505222\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">According to Romano<\/a>, his excessive wage will not be an issue, either. It is understood that Inter will pay no transfer fee for the Manchester United man, but will cover his full wage, paying \u00a37 million a year.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Inter Milan: A Growing Threat Once Again\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The move seems to suit all parties; Manchester United have the chance to offload S\u00e1nchez\u00a0and his needlessly high wage, while Inter Milan have the chance to further add to a squad ready for another title charge.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Inter Milan could have some squad on their hands next season ahead of another title challenge. This season, they came close; next season, they may find themselves at the summit of Italian football once more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<br \/>\n<a id=\"idVO1tT0SSNyhM97oppRvw\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/1227873327\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'idVO1tT0SSNyhM97oppRvw',sig:'yhZ4-gZXCjuy12B3Rk7kmj0OXPWCulvivf3oQ4iY5zI=',w:'594px',h:'416px',items:'1227873327',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After impressing out on loan this season, Alexis S\u00e1nchez\u00a0is close to agreeing a permanent switch from Manchester United to Inter Milan.
