Alexis Sanchez arrived at Manchester United's training ground ahead of his expected move from Arsenal yesterday, reports said, as his swap deal with Henrikh Mkhitaryan edged closer.

Britain's Daily Telegraph newspaper said Sanchez had been pictured arriving at United's training complex to complete his move from the London club, expected to be finalised today. Chile's Sanchez, 29, is set to become United's best-paid player, with some reports putting his salary at £400,000 ($554,000)
