Sanchez is in Carrington today to complete a medical before officially joining Manchester United.

The Chilean striker is set to earn around £500,000-a-week at Old Trafford, with Henrikh Mkhitaryan moving to Arsenal in a straight swap.

However, the deal was delayed as the Armenian winger and his agent Mino Raiola haggled for a better deal from the Gunners.

Earlier in the week a number of publications claimed the transfer would take place within 48 hours, and the drawn out saga has not gone unnoticed by Red Devils fans.

The deal has generated a huge amount of interest with Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool all being linked with moves for Sanchez, and supporters are also beginning to find the in-depth coverage rather funny.
