Fans spot Alexis Sanchez has identical photo of his dogs framed twice

Alexis Sanchez likes his dogs. That much we know.

Atom and Humber, two golden retrievers, even have their own Instagram page with more than 185,000 followers.

When Alexis joined Manchester United, he even kitted them out in their own Red Devils kits complete with his No.7 shirt number.

They are famous in Chile, having appeared in TV adverts for dog food and the like, and named after Alexis's brother Humberto and the Atom character in the movie Real Steel.

So, yeah, the love is real.

Alexis posted a photo on his Instagram story on Thursday night with his right leg resting having recently injured his hamstring, as Atom looked mournfully at his owner.

But that wasn't the only thing eagle-eyed fans spotted as Alexis has two of the same photo of him as his beloved pair of pooches, side by side and in frames.

So nice, he framed it twice.
