Alexis Sanchez posted a farewell message to his Manchester United teammates after sealing a move to Inter Milan.
The 30-year-old striker, who spent three seasons in Serie A with Udinese from 2008 to 2011, has agreed to join the Nerazzurri on loan.
The Chilean brings to an end a torrid 18 months at Old Trafford where he scored just five goals in 45 appearances following his arrival from Arsenal.

He will now link up with former United striker Romelu Lukaku who left the club in a £73million deal this summer.
Sportsmail reported earlier, however, that Sanchez will still be United's second-highest earner despite being on loan to Inter.

It is understood that the 30-year-old pockets an eye-watering £400,000 a week, before bonuses, at United after signing from Arsenal last January.
Inter have agreed to pay close to £4.5m of the Chile international's £21m annual salary, meaning United will have to subsidise a significant portion of his wages.
