Manchester United chief Ed Woodward regrets luring Alexis Sanchez to Old Trafford and beating Manchester City to his signature, reports claim.
Sanchez joined United from Arsenal last January in a swap deal which saw Henrikh Mkhitaryan head in the opposite direction.
The Chilean has, however, failed to replicate the form which made him one of the most in-demand forwards plying their trade in Europe.
The Times reckon United executive vice-chairman Woodward is ruing the decision to sanction the deal for Sanchez to join then-manager Jose Mourinho’s squad.
