Former Manchester United midfielder David Beckham has revealed his astonishment at Alexis Sanchez‘s transfer from Arsenal to “the biggest club”.
Beckham was speaking at the launch of his new Major League Soccer franchise in Miami, the city to which he dreams of bringing some of football’s leading players.
When he was asked about Sanchez’s recent switch to Old Trafford, he expressed his astonishment at the move.
The former England captain, now 42, told Press Association Sport: “I still can’t believe it’s happened to be honest.
“When he’s been part of a club as big as Arsenal and then he moves a few hours away up north to the biggest club, it’s astonishing to see.
“We all wish him luck, I’m a Manchester United fan so I am excited about having someone of his talent wearing a Manchester United shirt – so it’s exciting times for us.”
