Revitalised by explosive muscle work, a change in role and dinner dates with Romelu Lukaku.... Alexis Sanchez's post-lockdown Inter transformation has been a £58MILLION gift for Manchester United

Alexis Sanchez is on the cusp of finally ending his horror spell at Manchester United as Inter Milan get set to announce the permanent signing of the Chilean forward.

The move should represent a good piece of business all round, with United set to save up to an eye-watering £58million in wages for a player they forked out an astonishing amount on, while Antonio Conte finally appears to have gotten his man.

Conte was eager to buy Sanchez when he was manager at both Juventus and Chelsea but he only got his wish when Inter signed him on a loan deal in August last year - however, now the pair will get to work with each other on a permanent basis.
