Alexis Sanchez is among the best attackers in the Premier League and won the PFA Fans' Player of the Year award 2015. He was also included in the PFA Team of the Year 2014-2015 and was a part of the FIFPro World XI fourth team on three different occasions.
However, his career regressed since joining Manchester United from Arsenal in January last season and he is yet to make an impact at the Old Trafford. He scored just four goals in 26 games for the Red Devils so far and is rumoured to move away from the club to revive his career.
Right on this note, here's the list of five players who can replace Alexis Sanchez at Manchester United.
#5 Hirving Lozano
The Mexican international, Hirving Lozano, enjoyed a superb 2018 FIFA World Cup and was certainly one of the best finds of the tournament. He registered one goal and one assist at the international football's biggest stage and helped his team reach the round-of-16 of the tournament.
Known for his speed, technique, and finishing ability, Lozano joined PSV Eindhoven in 2017 and quickly became a fan favourite with his impressive performances. He played a vital role in PSV's title-winning 2017-18 season and contributed 17 goals along with 11 assists.
The former CF Pachuca player started strong this season as well and already registered eight goals and three assists in the opening ten Eredivisie games.
At 23, his best years are yet to come and big clubs like Chelsea and Barcelona are already being linked with him for a move. Manchester United needs to move faster in order to lure the talented Mexican to the Old Trafford.
#4 Nabil Fekir
Nabil Fekir is one of the best attackers in the Ligue 1 right now and could be the answer to Red Devils' attacking woes this season.
The Lyon academy graduate made his debut in 2013 and became a first-team regular within a year. He scored 13 goals in his second season in the Ligue 1 and was awarded the Ligue 1 Young Player of the Season award. He was also a part of the Ligue 1 Team of the Season in the 2014-2015 season.
Fekir is known for his agility, quickness and a surprisingly strong build. He is established in the number 10 role but can also play up front or through both wings. He often shows his full ability when playing on the right, cutting inside and never hesitating to go for the goal. He likes running at the defenders and uses his pace and dribbling skills to get past them.
Signing Nabil Fekir has its own challenges given his injury record, however, the World Cup 2018 winner is a top talent and could take the Red Devils to the next level.
#3 Florian Thauvin
Florian Thauvin revived his career with his former club, Marseille, following his not so impressive time at St. James Park. He was one of the top players in the French top flight last season scoring 22 goals and assisting 12 more.
Florian Thauvin has superb dribbling skills and doesn't lack composure in front of the goal. He possesses great pace and loves to cut inside into good shooting positions.
His brilliant performances also caught the attention of France's national team's manager, Didier Deschamps and he was the part of France's FIFA World Cup winning squad.
The 25-year-old would be a great replacement for the Chilean and can establish himself among the best players in the world with the Red Devils. However, his strength remains to be a question and the former Newcastle United winger would need to cope with the physicality of the league if he is to be successful.
#2 Julian Draxler
The German international was the hottest talent in world football some years back but is now finding it difficult to cement his place in the Starting XI of the star-studded PSG team.
Draxler exploded onto the scene at Schalke and played 170 games in all competitions for S04, scoring 30 goals. He moved to Wolfsburg in 2015 and enjoyed one and half successful seasons before moving to join PSG in the January transfer window of 2017.
The PSG man is a technically strong player who is happy to play on the wings or as the central attacking midfielder. His shooting and dribbling are his key attributes and he is equally good with both feet.
He was a part of the Bundesliga Team of the Season 2013-14 and also won the Bundesliga Young Player of the season accolade in the same season.
Draxler will be an excellent addition for Manchester United going forward but Jose Mourinho will face competition from the number of big clubs who are trying to secure the services of the talented attacker.
#1 Antoine Griezmann
One of the best attackers in the world right now, Antoine Griezmann is pivotal to Athletico Madrid's success in recent years.
Antoine Griezmann started his career with Real Sociedad and scored 52 goals in 202 appearances for the club before joining Athletico Madrid in 2014. He established himself among the best players in the world with the Madrid-based club and finished third in the Ballon d'Or 2016 awards.
The French international is a skilled dribbler capable of playing anywhere across the front line. He likes to shoot from the distance and scored a number of goals from outside the box during his career. Griezmann also possesses an electrifying pace and will make the Red Devils a threat during the counter attacks.
The 27-year-old was linked with Manchester United during the summer transfer window and the Red Devils might again turn their attention towards him if Alexis Sanchez decides to leave the club.
