In August 2019, Sanchez was initially roped in by Inter Milan from the Premier League club on a one-season loan. He went on to make 29 appearances for the Italian side and smashed four goals for them.


At Inter Milan, the forward joined his former United team-mate Romelu Lukaku and Ashley Young and the trio played a crucial part in the side's second-place league finish following Serie A’s resumption.


Earlier in January 2018, Sanchez moved to United from Arsenal and became the first Chilean to play in a competitive game for the Reds.He notched up five goals in 45 appearances he made for United.


Recently, Inter Milan made a second-place finish in Serie A with 24 victories from 38 games.


Meanwhile, Sanchez could have a reunion with United as both sides are still in the Europa League and set to feature in the quarter-finals. However, the two clubs could only face each other if they make it to the final of the Europa League.
