Despite his agent Fernando Felicevich meeting with the Inter brass yesterday, the agreement to terminate the contract of Alexis Sanchez isn’t final yet. The representative and the player had dinner together, and the attacker was quizzed about whether he was about to leave by Sky Italy.
“I haven’t decided yet. I always want to win. A lion thinks like that. I always expect something more and I’m happy. It’s too early to say something to the Nerazzurri fans.”
As per Alfredo Pedullà, Sanchez hasn’t parted ways with Inter yet because Olympique Marseille haven’t formalized their offer. Once the numbers of his next contract are known, he’ll use them in the negotiation with the Nerazzurri directors. He’s unwilling to give up money, as his salary would have been €7M net for 2022/2023.
Pablo Longoria, the president of the Ligue 1 outfit, replied to a question about the Chilean veteran and Jordan Veretout in yesterday’s presser (via DAZN).
“They are world-class players. The former has been measuring up with a very demanding league in the last five years, while the latter has won everywhere he’s gone. They are under contract with their respective clubs and we respect them. We are content with what we have done so far. We aim to have a 22-player squad by September 1st.”
Olympique Marseille are closing on Jordan Veretout deal. Final details being discussed, personal terms are agreed. Next step: Alexis Sanchez, in negotiations soon. ?? #OM

Our Take on Inter and Alexis Sanchez
Unfortunately for the Nerazzurri, the problem with aging stars and their large wages is that they don’t go away quietly, but it’s just a matter of time. Looking back at their stints, the attacker was worth the trouble, while that wasn’t the case for Arturo Vidal.
