While he has not given any news to OM for weeks, Alexis Sanchez, free of any contract, would be in the sights of Barça, his former club from 2011 to 2014.
What if, at 34, and still eager to play at a high level in Europe, Alexis Sanchez made his big comeback to FC Barcelona? According to Catalan journalist Josep Capdevila, the Chilean striker, free of any contract after his season at OM, would be one of the tracks of the Blaugrana leaders in the event of the departure of Ousmane Dembélé.
“El Niño Maravilla” would thus find Xavi, his former teammate for 3 seasons (2011-2014, a La Liga title and a Copa del Rey won together), who is now coach of the first team. He could play Robert Lewandowski’s understudy up front as well as move on the sides, especially on the left, where Gavi is often used (in order to fit into the axis, freeing the wing to Alejandro Balde).
Alexis Sanchez obviously never responded to the new contract offered by Pablo Longoria, the president of the Phocaeans. The latter has already made good progress on the constitution of his offensive sector by offering the services of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (released by Chelsea), Ismaïla Sarr (for 12 million euros) and now Iliman Ndiaye (for 15 to 20 M €).
