Manchester United forward Alexis Sanchez is considering leaving the club, according to the Times.
The report states that the Chilean international is not getting along with his teammates, doesn’t enjoy working for Jose Mourinho and he’s also dealing with issues in his personal life. French giants PSG are reportedly waiting in the wings to snap him up.
Fans on Twitter had a mixed reaction to the story with some hoping that he leaves after a string of poor performances:

If this is true United must get rid of him as early as January may be that’s why his performances r o as expected no need to keep an unhappy player under performing on a high wage bill .

He should leave. Besides his salary is unnecessary. Some other superstar should be brought in and maybe he'll be worthy of such a salary. Or one of our young lads in the near future….say Rashford in a few years

I’d sell him in a heart beat!

While other supporters are surprised considering how happy he has looked with teammates in training and on social media:
Totally false

Read the article & it's written to big up city for its decision not to sign Sanchez. Rift with speculation that was written b4 when he just joined. I'd be very surprised if it was true but if was I wouldn't be bothered

There’s no doubt that Sanchez has been a disappointment since his arrival from Arsenal last January. You only have to look at his goalscoring record to see the 29-year-old has been struggling for form.
Just four goals in 28 appearances isn’t what many United fans were expecting when he arrived. Injuries have certainly played a role and it must be said he has looked much better in recent games playing up front in Romelu Lukaku’s absence.
