Alexis Sanchez will attempt to convince Inter to keep a hold of him past the end of this season in what remains of this season according to a report in today’s print edition of Italian daily newspaper Tuttosport.

The Chilean national team attacker joined Inter on a season long loan this past Summer from Premier League side Manchester United but it as yet unclear what his future will be.

The former Barcelona and Arsenal player came on off the bench in this weekend’s draw away to Napoli and impressed, so much so that he may have earned a place in the starting line-up ahead of Barcelona target Lautaro Martinez, who performed poorly.

Sanchez hopes to be able to stay with the Nerazzurri club and Inter are now thinking about it, the report from the Turin based news outlet explains. Finding an agreement with Manchester United will however not be easy for Inter.
