LONDON: Manchester United travel to Barcelona on Tuesday needing another miraculous Champions League fightback from a 1-0 first-leg defeat on home soil to make the semi-finals. Sanchez signed reportedly the most lucrative contract in Premier League history when joining from Arsenal last January, earning close to £400,000 ($520,000) a week plus a series of bonuses. The splash on Sanchez’s contract also threatens to cost the club dearly, either in lucrative new deals, or losing some of their best players. Instead, it is Sanchez they would love to ship out if a buyer can be found to fund his wages. A Champions League quarter-final at the Camp Nou is exactly the sort of stage United’s number seven was signed for.
