“I also believe that the club itself cared about me joining, and I got the impression that they were keen for me to come here and wear the number seven shirt.

That was one of the things that attracted me to come here, along with the manager, who is a person who won everything in Italy, the same as he did in Spain, and he’s a manager who likes to win.” Sanchez told MUTV
