It’s not that class anymore, but it still knows how to sell. Alexis Sanchez was aware that this season he would be sitting on the bench (or stands) at Inter, which is why he agreed to terminate his contract!
With the arrival of Romelu Lukaku, it became clear that five strikers are already too many in Simone Inzaghi’s squad. Besides the Belgian, Lautaro Martinez also appears as the second sure starter.
When we calculate that Joaquin Correa was officially bought from Lazio this summer, and that Edin Dzeko is still a more proven option than Sanchez, it is clear why the Chilean had to go.
In view of all this, Inter is looking at how it can reduce costs, and as the experienced footballer was one of the highest paid players in the team with 7,000,000 euros per year, it was logical for the two parties to part ways.
Sanchez still has one year left on his contract with Inter, which will pay him as much as 4,500,000 euros in the name of early termination of cooperation!
Not only has Sanchez done well, but he will earn more this season on the pitch than he would at Inter sitting on the bench or in the stands.
How? By signing a contract with Marseille worth 3,000,000 euros per year! The agreement between the two parties has been reached and only an official announcement is awaited.
So, for Sanchez the entire 7,500,000 euros this season, plus a signing bonus which is an unwritten rule as an obligation for players who arrive with clean papers, although it is not yet known how much money the former Udinese, Barcelona, Manchester player will receive for that item United and Arsenal.
Let’s also mention that Sanchez agreed on a two-year contract with Marseille, which automatically brings him at least 6,000,000 euros in his pocket. Certainly and more…
That is why it is not surprising that the generally accepted view is that the Chilean robbed former and future employers…
