Inter Milan GM Beppe Marotta says talks have opened with Manchester United over a deal for Alexis Sanchez.

Alexis is currently on-loan at Inter to the end of the Serie A season.

Marotta said, “We have had some contact with Manchester United to understand if we can extend his stay after the Europa League play-off with Getafe."

He continued: “We are discussing contract renewals with many players, above all the younger ones who we want to work with for a long time, and that includes Lautaro.

“We're doing it calmly, without rush, as there is a rapport of trust. He is happy to wear this jersey and at the opportune moment we will evaluate his future."
