Inter Milan ready to dump €7m-a-year star in January

Inter Milan are ready to move on Chilean forward, Alexis Sanchez from the club next January. The Italian club are looking to reduce their high wage bill by offloading some of their high earners who are not first team regulars. One of those players is Alexis Sanchez. 

Alexis Sanchez came to the club when Antonio Conte was manager. He came on loan from Manchester United where he was rumoured to be warning £450,000 a week in wages. Now, Alexis Sanchez wage bill is said to be €7m a year. This comes to about €135,000 a week. 

Despite the relatively low wages, Inter Milan still want to offload the winger in January due to his inconsistency in the team. Alexis Sanchez has a contract with the club till 2023 but they would prefer to move him on now so they can balance the books. 

Inter Milan do not have enough money to sign new players despite selling two of the Serie A winning stars from last season, Romelu Lukaku and Achraf Hakimi, for a combined £156m.
