Paris Saint-Germain are keen on a move to sign Alexis Sanchez from Manchester United next summer, according to reports in the British media.

The Sun is reporting that the Ligue 1 giants are keen on landing the 29-year-old attacker, who has struggled to find consistent form for the Red Devils since signing from Arsenal in January.

Sanchez signed for Manchester United at the turn of the year as part of the deal which saw Henrikh Mkhitaryan head to The Emirates.

The same story claims that the attacker earns around £505,000 a week at Old Trafford, making him by far the highest-paid player at the club.

It is claimed in the same article that the Manchester United hierarchy have discussed the possibility of getting Sanchez off their books, considering his stuttering form for the Red Devils.

Sanchez has struggled to find consistent form and he has only started four of Manchester United’s 10 Premier League games so far this season. He has scored one goal and made one assist in seven top-flight appearances in total.

The same article claims that PSG would be willing to take Sanchez off Manchester United’s books, as long as they can secure a cut-price deal, or even a free transfer next summer.

It is also claimed in the story that PSG are likely to lose one of either Neymar or Kylian Mbappe next summer, so Sanchez is being lined up as a possible replacement.

Regardless of whether this speculation is true or not, Sanchez will be hoping to be involved for Manchester United when the Red Devils return to Premier League action on Saturday lunchtime with a trip to Bournemouth.

The Red Devils are currently eighth in the Premier League table and nine points off top spot after 10 games.
