3 possible destinations for Alexis Sanchez

Juventus v Manchester United - UEFA Champions League

It has just been 9 months since Alexis Sanchez joined Manchester United and the Chilean forward is already unhappy at Old Trafford. He has failed to replicate his Premier League form at Manchester United which has seen him not cross the double digits in his goalscoring tally.

The reason for this could be pointed to Sanchez's form and also lack of service from the Manchester United midfield. Anthony Martial's recent form has meant that Sanchez has had to give up on his preferred position on the left flank which might have frustrated the former Barcelona player.

Alexis Sanchez might have made a decision to leave United which would put a lot of European giants on alert. We have compiled a list of 3 teams where Sanchez's move could benefit both the teams.


#3 Real Madrid

Real Madrid has probably had the worst start to the season in many years as they have been struggling in the Spanish League. They have sacked their manager after their star duo of Ronaldo and Zidane left at the end of last season.

Real Madrid's new signings have failed to make an impact and Bale and Asensio have not fulfilled their potential. This makes a position vacant at the front in the Real Madrid squad which they will be looking to fill in January.

Having played with Barcelona, Alexis Sanchez could be one of the very few players who has represented both the Spanish giants if this move materialises. Sanchez has experience playing in LaLiga and this could be a vital factor when Real Madrid start deciding on their targets.

Madrid's inability to take Eden Hazard away from Chelsea and their good relationship with Manchester United could help them seal this move. United will be more than ready to sell their No.7 if they can get a Real Madrid midfielder in return. However, this move is still far away and Real Madrid fans have to wait until the end of January to find their replacement for Cristiano.

#2 Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich is surprisingly not at the top of the Bundesliga this season as they have failed to put on a consistent performance as a team. Under their new manager, Niko Kovac the German giant has leaked a lot of goals and their ageing forwards have been short of goals. Especially Arjen Robben has been short of form on the wing.

Hence, the 30-year-old Sanchez can be a suitable replacement for the Dutch legend. Sanchez's pace and dynamic style of play would settle in well with Bayern Munich's tactics which could help both partied get back to their prime form.

Coupled with the likes of Thomas Muller, James Rodriguez, and Robert Lewandowski, Sanchez could form a formidable partnership with them. However, Manchester United would be unwilling to let go of their star player in the middle of the season and Bayern might have to put their financial strength on display after a very long time.

#1 Paris Saint-Germain

 PSG could be Sanchez's best option

PSG was Sanchez's preferred choice when he left Arsenal but the French Club's Financial Fair Play (FFP) restrictions could not allow them to seal a move for the Chilean.

PSG now has a plethora of talent in attacking positions and it might actually be difficult to fit in Sanchez at the front. However, PSG might have limitations about using Angel Di Maria and Edinson Cavani in the future which could let them find a suitable position for Alexis in the squad.

PSG has no qualms about money and hence this move is a possibility. Having Alexis, Neymar, and Mbappe at the front could help PSG in their European aspirations. The Paris-based squad might have to sell a few players to fund a move for the Chilean forward as their spending has been under the scanner in recent times. Sanchez could in all probability be a PSG player by the end of January.
