Jose Mourinho said on Tuesday it would be "great" if Arsenal's Alexis Sanchez became a Manchester United player as Manchester City's interest in the Chilean reportedly came to an end. Mourinho, speaking after second-placed United had reduced Premier League table-toppers City's lead to 12 points, was wary when it was suggested to him that Sanchez was on his way to Old Trafford. "No news on Alexis Sanchez, he is an Arsenal player," he told the BBC. "If he stays it's great for Arsenal, if he comes to us, great for us, if he goes to another club, great for them." Probably there are other clubs also interested and trying and I shouldn't talk about a player who is an Arsenal player."
