Sanchez banished to train with United reserves?

Manchester United attacker Alexis Sanchez is reportedly not in the plans of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer this season.

Sanchez did not play a minute of United's pre-season after picking up a hamstring injury while representing Chile at the Copa America earlier this summer.

The former Arsenal forward is now back with the Red Devils, who opened their 2019-20 Premier League campaign with a 4-0 home win over Chelsea on Sunday afternoon.

However, according to The Sun, Solskjaer is desperate to get rid of the 30-year-old this summer, and Sanchez will be banished to the reserves unless he can agree a move abroad before the end of the month.

Roma have been linked with a swoop for the attacker, who is said to have been involved in a bust-up with teenager Mason Greenwood after returning from the Copa America.

Sanchez has only managed five goals in 45 appearances for the 20-time English champions since joining from Arsenal in January 2018.
