Chilean striker Alexis Sanchez is likely to join Karim Benzema at Saudi club Al-Ittihad.
After Karim Benzema, Al-Ittihad is preparing to welcome another star in its offensive sector. The Chilean Alexis Sanchez is expected at Al-Jeddah for the second part of the season.
Gallardo flirts with Alexis Sanchez
Alexis Sanchez currently plays for Inter. However, with the Nerazzurri, he is struggling to stand out. Helmed by the duo Lautaro Martinez – Marcus Thuram, he made a second visit to Lombardy much less convincing than the first.
It is Marcelo Gallardo who is campaigning in favor of Alexis Sanchez coming to Saudi Arabia. The Argentine technician had already sought to sign the Chilean when he was in charge of River Plate. But the latter preferred to stay in Europe.
