The much-anticipated swap deal between Alexis Sanchez and Manchester United turned into a spectacular failure. Sanchez, once a Premier League standout, arrived at Old Trafford with high expectations. However, the Chilean’s performance plummeted drastically, leaving fans bewildered.

Despite earning a hefty €400,000, Sanchez struggled to recapture his former brilliance, managing a mere five goals in 45 appearances. The disappointment was palpable, as the Red Devils had hoped for fireworks but received a lacklustre display. Eventually loaned to Inter Milan, Sanchez’s stint with Manchester United became a cautionary tale of a promising trade gone wrong, leaving the club and its supporters lamenting the misguided move.
