Manchester United’s summer signing Alexis Sanchez has hit back at claims he eats alone at Manchester United.

"He looks like someone who doesn't want to be here,' the Manchester United source said. "The whole thing doesn't seem right and he looks like a lost boy. It was the same with Di Maria."

However, the Manchester United number seven responded on Instagram by uploading a picture of him and Chile team-mates at the table having some lunch.

"I had asked permission to miss these games, but then I thought better and spoke with Claudio Bravo and told him that we should all be united."

"The change of club was something that was very abrupt - it was the first time I've changed clubs in January - but many things have happened in my life that are difficult." He added.
