In the latest transfer development, Corinthians are considering a possible transfer for veteran striker Alexis Sánchez. The Brazilian club’s board is anxiously awaiting Róger Guedes’ decision on an offer from a Qatari team, which will determine whether the club goes after the 34-year-old striker.
Sánchez has been a free agent since he left Marseille earlier this month. During his time at the French club, he showed his talent as a goalscorer, scoring 18 goals in 44 games. The Chile international has enjoyed an illustrious career, having shown his skills at top clubs such as Arsenal, Barcelona, Manchester United and Inter Milan. He also has the distinction of being Chile’s all-time top scorer (49 goals).
The possible acquisition of Sánchez would undoubtedly add experience and attacking ability to the Corinthians team. However, the final decision depends on Róger Guedes’ verdict on the Qatari team’s offer. Corinthians fans are eagerly awaiting the result, as they hope the possible arrival of the highly decorated striker will boost the team’s ambitions for next season.
The signing of Alexis Sánchez will be potentially important news for Brazilian soccer. The Chilean will be competing with other veterans such as Marcelo, Hulk, Luis Suárez, Fernandinho, etc. We’ll have to keep an eye on how this change unfolds.
