Sanchez joined Udinese in a free transfer from Inter last year. It wasn't until December that he set foot on the field after he injured his leg in training. Considering his injury crisis, Fenerbahce have opted to offer the Chilean international with a one-year contract, which the forward can extend given he plays 70 per cent of the total minutes or contributes directly or indirectly to 15 goals.

Argentine club River Plate had also reportedly shown interest and contacted the player's camp. However, with Fenerbahce advancing in their interest, a possible move to Istanbul is more likely.

Injury problems limited his playing time at Old Trafford and he was loaned to Inter in August 2019 before completing a permanent free transfer to the San Siro side the following summer.
