Twelve months after leaving for Olympique de Marseille, Alexis Sanchez will turn back and find Inter Milan. Author of a good season under the colors of Marseille (44 games, 18 goals, 3 assists TCC), the performances of the Chilean striker convinced the Nerazzurri to enlist him a second time. While the signing of the ex-Marseillais is imminent, his return divides the crowds on the other side of the Alps.

As pointed out by the Gazzetta dello Sport, he is criticized in Italy for his behavior when he left last summer. At the time, Alexis Sanchez did not hesitate to publicly criticize his coach, Simeone Inzaghi, because of his limited playing time. In addition, the transalpine media reports that it would have fallen out with its president, Steven Zhang, on the sidelines of his arrival on the Canebière. Finally in Milan, we wonder about his ability to weigh on the front of the Lombard attack given his advanced age (33 years old) in the same way as his future teammate, Marko Arnautovic (34 years old) while young players were expected like Folarin Balogun.
