Ray Parlour has told talkSPORT he is amazed by Alexis Sanchezs decline since he left Arsenal to join Manchester United.The Chilean is reportedly set to leave Old Trafford this summer after a torrid 16 months at Old Trafford, where he is no longer in the first-team picture.Alexis Sanchez has scored just two goals for Manchester United this seasonGetty3

Sanchez arrived to a great fanfare in January 2018, signing a four-and-a-half year contract at 500,000-per-week.But the forward, who boasted an incredible scoring record for the Gunners, has been a huge flop for the Red Devils.The 30-year-old was directly involved in 125 goals (scoring 80, assisting 45) in 166 games for Arsenal. He has managed just five goals and nine assists for United, however.Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is preparing for a summer clear out, which Sanchez is widely expected to be a part of, and latest reports claim the club could have to pay the forward 12million for him NOT TO PLAY for them next season. According to the Daily Mirror, Inter Milan are interested in taking Sanchez on a season-long loan, but United would still have to pay half his wage – 250,000-a-week.Those reports outraged Sports Breakfast host Alan Brazil who said on Wednesday morning: Is that not what is wrong with football? 12million NOT to play? Thats a kings ransom! Its a joke, Im sick of it!But co-host Parlour conceded the game has been this way for a while, and revealed his shock at how Sanchez career has spiralled.Football went that way a long time ago, said the Arsenal legend.There have been so many players who have been frozen out but theyre on such good contracts that they say, OK, Ill sit in the reserves for three years. Winston Bogarde is a prime example.Bogarde said of his Chelsea career: Why should I throw 15m away when it is already mine? At the moment I signed it was in fact my money. I used to be poor as a kid… so when you are offered those millions you take them. Few people will ever earn so many. I am one of the few fortunates who do. I may be one of the worst buys in the history of the Premiership, but I don’t care.Getty3

Former Chelsea defender Bogarde famously made just nine league appearances in four years at Stamford Bridge. The Dutchman was not wanted by manager Claudio Ranieri but decided to stay and honour his 40,000-a-week contract, which he felt he could not earn at another club.Parlour continued: You get that happening because theyre not going to get that money anywhere else.For me, you have to play as a footballer. Thats your living, thats where you get a buzz.Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has used Alexis Sanchez sparingly this termGetty3

Alexis Sanchez was brilliant at Arsenal, but it just hasnt clicked for him at United.When he signed for them, Ive got a few Man United mates and I said to them: Youve got some player there, hes certainly going to improve you a lot.Im amazed to see what has happened to his career.

Bale could joy this elite cast, but joining up with Cristiano Ronaldo again would be problematic in several ways. Could Juve afford the fee and wages? Perhaps if they sell Paulo Dybala, who has been linked with a move away.
