Alexis Sanchez

Coming from a poor Chilean family, Alexis Sanchez, thanks to perseverance and determination, was able to become one of the highest paid football players. World-renowned clubs are fighting for the right to get a striker in the team, and girls give their hearts to a young athlete.

Alexis Sanchez was born on December 19, 1988 in the small, poor port Chilean town of Tocopilla. The family, besides the boy, had three more children. The father could not support the family on the meager salary of a fisherman and left his wife Martin to raise the children alone.

The family lived in poverty. The mother of the future football player had to take on any job to feed the kids. The grown-up Alexis did his best to help Martina. The boy washed cars, twisted somersaults for money, participated on a bet in street fights. I had to survive in every possible way. As the brother of one of the highest paid athletes recalled, sometimes there was no money at all, and the children had to ask neighbors for food.

Uncle Sanchez came to the aid of the desperate woman, offering to take care of the boy. Reluctantly, Martina was forced to agree.

Since childhood, Alexis's biography has been associated with football. A nimble, nimble, hardy boy barefoot kicked a ball on the streets of the city. The first pair of boots went to the young athlete from the mayor of the city, impressed by the game.

Since not only Sanchez's mother, but also his uncle did not have funds for education, the only chance for Alexis was football. Until the age of 14, the boy played for the amateur club of his hometown "Arauco", and then moved to "Cobreola". Already at the age of 16, the footballer made his debut in the main team of the club. For agility and dedication, as well as efficiency on the field, journalists nicknamed Sanchez "the miracle boy."

The game of truly serious football begins for Sanchez in 2006 with the transfer to the Italian Udinese. The club paid $ 3 million for the player's transfer, which was considered a decent amount. However, immediately after the transition, Sanchez was loaned to the Chilean Colo-Colo, and then to River Plate. Seasons in third-party teams have benefited the player's career, the statistics of goals scored, as well as victorious matches forced Udinese to leave Alexis in the first team on the field.

Soon, world-famous clubs became interested in a nimble, energetic and short player (Sanchez's height is 169 cm). In 2008, there were rumors about an invitation to the Manchester United squad. Then the transfer did not take place.

In 2011, Sanchez signed a contract with the legendary Barcelona, ​​becoming the first Chilean in the team. For the football of the South American country, the transfer became the most expensive - Barça paid € 26 million for Alexis and another € 11 million - bonuses.

The debut of the footballer for the honor of Barcelona took place in the match against Real Madrid at the Spanish Super Cup on 14 August 2011. The meeting ended in a draw. In total, as part of the club, the player entered the field 88 times in the Premier League, regularly sending balls to the opponents' goal. According to statistics, Sanchez has scored 38 league goals in his three seasons.

2014 was marked by another club change. This time Sanchez donned the Arsenal jersey. The player's salary grew inexorably with each contract. As part of Arsenal, the annual fee was € 4.5 million.

It is at Arsenal that Sanchez changes his winger position to a clean striker. The fans, enthusiastic about the football player's game, recognized Alexis as the best player in the league of the 2014-2015 season. As part of the club, Sanchez spent three seasons.

In international games, the striker made his debut in the Chilean youth team when he was not yet 18. Then he regularly entered the national team of the country in championships. In 2015, the team won the America's Cup for the first time, and in 2016 they confirmed their success.

Sanchez was known as a plunderer of women's hearts. A confident and strong-willed man is seen in relationships with many secular beauties. True, none of them has yet managed to keep the passionate Chilean in the arms for a long time.

For a long time, the footballer met with the Brazilian model Michelle Carvalho. The attacker did not want to make the relationship public, but Michelle was just not against it. After the connection of young people became known to the press, the football player left his former lover. The model later shared with reporters her suspicions that the athlete had another woman.

By the way, accusations of treason became the reason for parting with another beauty - art director from Barcelona Laia Grassi.

The break with the dancer Valentina Roth turned out to be ridiculous. According to the girl's stories to the Daily Star reporters, the striker decided to make a bad joke on his beloved. Friends of the young man hid in a closet with a video camera to film an intimate evening of lovers. Such behavior, according to Valentina, offended her, and the beauty immediately broke up with Sanchez.

However, the Chilean is not alone for long. In the summer of 2017, it became known about the new lover of Alexis. Despite the fact that the footballer does not seek to advertise his personal life, the photos on Instagram eloquently told about the relationship that had begun with actress Maite Rodriguez, who is known in Chile for her roles in television series.

By the way, the fans saw in the football player's new lover the reason for his not the most successful game in his career in 2017. According to fans, Alexis was too carried away by the beauty and completely forgot about sports.

The couple, among other things, are united by their love for animals. Mayte's Instagram, like Sanchez's, is full of photos with adored dogs. The footballer has two of them - the golden retrievers Atom and Humbert. The young man is attached to his smaller brothers, whom he considers best friends. Nicknames are stamped on the football player's boots. And in 2016, Alexis even created a separate profile for the dogs on Instagram.

On January 22, 2018, a direct player exchange took place between two world-famous clubs. Arsenal gave Sanchez to Manchester United, having received from the Red Devils Henrikh Mkhitaryan. According to the signed long-term contract, Alexis' salary reached a record for him 450 thousand pounds sterling per week.

Meanwhile, according to the Daily Mail, the Chilean did not take root in the new club. The newly-minted colleagues did not accept the attacker, who was heavy in character. Considering Alexis to be withdrawn and arrogant, the "red devils" do not show a friendly attitude in the locker room. Adaptation difficulties may have contributed to the striker's low performance at the start of the 2018 season for Manchester United.

Sanchez's troubles didn't end there. In February 2018, a scandal erupted in the press caused by a lawsuit against a football player. The striker is charged with tax evasion for 2012 and 2013. Sanchez fully pleaded guilty and received a 16 months suspended prison sentence.
