Olympique Marseille striker Alexis Sanchez says some Inter Milan teammates were baffled by his departure.

Alexis spent three years at Inter before moving to OM last summer.

He said, “Some teammates at Inter told me that I could still be useful and that they didn't understand why I left but that's football, I wanted to play.

“However, I thank the people of Inter, I experienced good things in that locker room, now I am happy here in Marseille and every now and then.

"However, I hear from some former teammates, I get messages saying 'Bravo Nino'."
