Gary Neville brutally slams former Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez ahead of Manchester United exit

Manchester United great Gary Neville has labelled Alexis Sanchez's time at the Red Devils a 'disaster' as the forward edges closer to departing Old Trafford.

Inter Milan have made an approach to take the former Arsenal star on loan for the 2019/20 campaign, with the 30-year-old potentially leaving United ahead of the Italian summer transfer deadline.

Sanchez starred at Arsenal from 2014 to 2018 after joining from Barcelona and was expected to lead the line for United.

But the Chilean star has instead only registered three Premier League goals since he joined United, leading Neville to criticising his time at the club.

"We talk about Alexis Sanchez going to Italy tonight. I welcomed him to United," Neville told Sky Sports.

"I thought he would be a forward who'd play across the line. He is tenacious but it's a disaster. He has been an absolute disaster.

"I have no idea what has happened to Alexis Sanchez to the one that we saw playing in Barcelona and at Arsenal for several years.

"The one that has turned up in Manchester, I have no idea what it is. I have so much respect for him but they need to get him out of the club."
