Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho says a deal for Arsenal attacker Alexis Sanchez is not yet closed.

Speaking after United's 1-0 win at Burnley on Saturday, Mourinho said that while Sanchez looks set to sign for the Red Devils, there is still a possibility of the deal collapsing.

Mourinho told reporters: "I expect soon or never. I think it's so close, so close, so close that if it doesn't happen it's not going to happen, so I am positive.

"I know that my people are doing everything, absolutely everything they can, the owners with the green light, (executive vice-chairman) Mr (Ed) Woodward's working hard.

"I think everybody is giving everything they can and I think they are going to be successful."
