| Man United want to sign Alexis Sanchez |
MANCHESTER UNITED are preparing a stunning £53million bid for Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez, according to reports in Spain.
The Chile winger joined Arsenal in 2014 and was sensational in his debut season.
He started this campaign sluggishly after a busy summer on international duty but has since found his feet again.
It took him until his ninth appearance of the season to score, but a hat-trick against Leicester opened the flood gates.
He now has six Premier League goals in 12 matches and has helped the Gunners stay with leaders Manchester City.
However Louis van Gaal has taken notice.
Sanchez scored twice against United in the 3-0 demolition at the Emirates last month and Van Gaal wants to test the water.
Don Balon, a Spanish newspaper, claim United could offer £53m in January.
Sanchez cost Arsene Wenger's side £35m in a deal from Barcelona and is unlikely to entertain the thought of losing his top man.
Wenger sold Robin van Persie to United in 2012 but he only had a year on his contract.
