Sanchez reacts to Mourinho exit bet report

The accusation does not involve his salary from former club Real Madrid . Ronaldo left Madrid to play for Italian champions Juventus last summer , Sky Sports reports .Alexis Sanchez has slammed a newspaper report claiming he bet £ 20 , 000 with team -mate Marcos Rojo on whether Jose Mourinho would be sacked by Manchester United .

The Sun reported on Friday that Sanchez took to a Whatsapp group containing United players following Mourinho’ s sacking , saying “ Patience is all it takes ” , and telling Rojo he now owed him £ 20 , 000 .

However , Sanchez has denied the report , writing on Twitter alongside a picture of The Sun ’ s story , “ This is FALSE !!!

“ José gave me the chance to play for the best team in the world and I only have gratitude for him . We are a truly United team . We are MANCHESTER UNITED . Respect . I can ’ t wait to help the team ! Good luck tomorrow family !”

Sanchez was signed from Arsenal in January but has struggled to find his best form for United . Mourinho was even forced to deny reports last month that Sanchez was seeking an exit from Old Trafford .

Mourinho was dismissed by United on Tuesday , just two days after a 3 – 1 defeat at Liverpool which left them sixth in the Premier League and trailing their opponents by 19 points .

Former United striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was appointed as Mourinho’ s temporary replacement on Wednesday , and will lead the club until the end of the season before returning to Norwegian side Molde .

Solskjaer takes United to Cardiff on Saturday for his first game , where he will face the side he was relegated with when in charge in 2014 .

The former United striker confirmed on Friday he had not yet spoken to Sanchez since taking the job as the Chilean is still recovering from injury .
