Alexis Sanchez has revealed he was a Manchester United fan as a youngster and is determined to make supporters happy.
The Chile international became the highest paid Premier League player when United signed him in January 2018 as part of a swap deal that saw Henrikh Mkhitaryan move to Arsenal.
His basic salary is reported to be around £350,000-a-week, but it is alleged to rise as high as £500,000 with bonuses and image rights.
The 30-year-old has not been a success at Old Trafford and failed to replicate the form he showed for the Gunners.

In slightly over 12 months he has scored just five goals in 41 appearances.
He also picked up a knee injury in United̢۪s game with Southampton a couple of weeks ago and is likely to be out for another month.
Sanchez has been linked with a move away from the Red Devils but he remains committed to the team he supported as a young boy.
“I want to keep showing my love for football. I know what I can do. I have belief in my ability,” he told Inside United.
“United are such an important club, not only in England but on a global level, and I would love to help bring a trophy to the supporters.
“Obviously, I want to make the United fans really happy. I want to score goals. I want to bring them joy. I want to win silverware.
