Alexis Sanchez snubs ex-Man Utd team-mates on WhatsApp – but Chris Smalling keeps in touch


ALEXIS SANCHEZ appears to have cut all  ties with his Manchester United team-mates since his Italy move.

The Chilean flop, 30,  is at Inter Milan on a season-long loan after a woeful 18 months at Old Trafford.

 Alexis Sanchez and Chris Smalling are both out on loan in Serie A - and Smalling keeps in touch with his former team-mates and Sanchez doesn't

But while Chris Smalling, on loan at Roma, still joins in players’ banter on Whats App, there has been nothing from Sanchez.

The striker was something of a loner  at United.

But a Carrington source said of his silence: “It’s as if he was never here.”

Sanchez netted on his full Inter debut yesterday before getting sent off.

He picked up a second yellow card for diving in a 3-1 win at Sampdoria.

Meanwhile, PSV Eindhoven want United midfielder Tahith Chong on loan in January.

Chong, 19, started Wednesday’s Carabao Cup clash with Rochdale, albeit lasting only an hour before he was subbed after a disappointing display.

United have had a number of inquiries from abroad, and although Ole Gunnar Solskjaer would not consider selling, he is weighing up whether a loan move would be best right now.

Chong’s only real chance of first team football this season lies with the odd European and Cup game, and Solskjaer will also bring in new faces in the next window.

Now the United boss will decide whether playing every week elsewhere would speed up Chong’s development – and if so, he could spend the second half of the season in Holland.
