Chile drop Man United star from Squad to face two Asian Countries in friendly match

Latest report have made it known that South American team have dropped their highest goal scorer and most capped player, Alexis Sanchez from their 24 man squad as they travel to Asia.

Chile will be playing Japan and South Korea next month in a friendly game.

However, the South American country disclosed they drop Alexis Sanchez owing to advise from English football club, Manchester United.

Alexis Sanchez missed out of the Red Devils match against Brighton FC owing to a knock during training.

Even though he played in Man United loss to Tottenham Hotspur, the Red Devils believe the former Arsenal star is yet to gain back his fitness.

Despite, the fact that Chile didn’t qualify for the 2018 World Cup, Sanchez has performed poorly so far this season and the Red Devils are ready to work on him which is why they inform Chile not to include him in their squad.

While Chile will miss out on Alexis Sanchez, Barcelona new signing Arturo Vidal will join the squad going to Asia.

However, Chile captain, Claudio Bravo will not be playing owing to a ruptured Achilles he suffered during training at Manchester City.
