Manchester United are desperate to offload the outcast but are struggling to find a club prepared to match his £500,000-a-week wages.

Only a small number of clubs will be able to afford the winger but it appears Barca won't be making their move.

According to Spanish publication , Barcelona have told the Red Devils that any potential deal won't be happening.

Sanchez, 30, has only started eight league matches this season and United want to get him off the wage bill.
