Inter vice president Javier Zanetti on Alexis Sanchez

Alexis Sanchez has been linked to the Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr, but Inter's vice president was hesitant to say if he would be leaving.

The vice president of Inter, Javier Zanetti, doesn't know if

Alexis Sanchez

will stay a Nerazzurri player after reports that

Saudi Arabia

is interested in him. The 33-year-old Chilean player came from

Manchester United

in 2019. He first joined on loan for a season and then signed a permanent deal in 2020.

He was a member of the 2020-21 Inter team that won Serie A for the first time since 2009-10. In January of 2022, he scored the game-winning goal in the 121st minute to help his team win the

Supercoppa Italiana

.

Sanchez only scored five goals in 27 Serie A games for Inter last season, but he was taken off or replaced in 25 of those games. Since then, there has been talking of him leaving San Siro.

Al-Nassr, a Saudi Arabian club, is said to have made an offer for Sanchez, but when Zanetti was asked about the forward situation, he was vague. Zanetti told En Cancha, "He has started training with the team, and the whole squad is training with him." The transfer market is open, but he is still one of our players as of now."

Inter already had

Romelu Lukaku

on loan from Chelsea, and it looked like they would get

Paulo Dybala

, whose contract with Juventus ended in June. This would give them more options in attack. The 19-time Serie A champions seemed to be the favorites to sign Dybala, but the Argentine has instead joined Jose Mourinho's Europa Conference League-winning Roma ahead of the 2022-23 season.

Milan Skriniar could also leave Inter. He has been linked with a move to Paris Saint-Germain, but Nerazzurri goalkeeper Samir Handanovic said on Thursday that keeping the defender was "essential."
