Alexis Sanchez eyes £2m luxury Manchester mansion complete with cinema room, sun terrace and piano room
ALEXIS SANCHEZ has viewed a plush £2million mansion as he looks to settle into life in Manchester.
The Chilean superstar became the highest paid footballer in Premier League history this week after signing a £505,000-a-week deal with United.
The 29-year-old is already eyeing splashing some of his sizeable wealth, viewing the five-bedroom luxury pad in Greater Manchester.
The mansion also comes complete with a cinema room, sun terrace, piano room, huge garden, stunning master bedroom, bar, and sizeable kitchen.
He would also be living up the road from close pal and Chile team-mate Claudio Bravo, who plays for United's rivals City.
Sanchez was spotted arriving back at the Lowry Hotel in his £150,000 Bentley GT following a look around his new potential home.
The piano room would be perfect for the ex-Barcelona ace, as his United unveiling from Arsenal demonstrated his love for the instrument.
He is staying at the £816-a-night Lowry, which also houses Red Devils boss Jose Mourinho, along with his two beloved dogs Atom and Humber.
