"So why does Sanchez prefer to join Manchester United when there is an offer from Manchester City? So you will not go there, unless you chase money, it does not matter. It depends on who you are, "he continued.

"If you are a true professional and a winner and a man who wants to win a great title, then if you have a choice other than Manchester United, then that's what you'll take," the 56-year-old completed.
