People dont realize how players contracts works, they are pro and management must be professional too, but that is not the case here.. so:
Sanchez agreed to earn 130.000 p/w in his contract, less than what they offered in Juventus.
after a year, year and half..(still 3,5 or 3 in their pocket) management should have approached with 180.000 and an extension for 1 or 2 years... after 2 more years, a new renovation for 230-250.000 ... so, always there will be 3 years of running contract in case that the player doesnt want to renovate.
The problem? .. Arsenal approached to ask for an extension after 2,5 years, with just 1,5 years still running in the actual contract... why? avarice, they had a player who worth 250.000 working just for 130.000, so they could save 2-3 millions in wages.
Messi renovate his contract almost every year
Ronaldo is upset because RM still didnt renovate his contract that ends in 2021... in 2,5 years (and that is the sign that RM doesnt want him anymore)
with 1,5 years of contract, no sign that they want to put together an elite team .. and the lack of ambition of management and players around him, it is normal that Alexis asked to be sold in the next summer..... and he did it, but again was frustrated because AW always wants to pay peanuts for quality players and he wait till the last minute to force the hand of other Clubs, but this time didnt work and Alexis was keeped in the team.
This season he played in "normal" mode, 5 months of contract and people wants him to cut his legs to win ... ridiculous, all the risk of an injury is on him, and for 3 years he gave 120% of his effort, I fully understand that he is frustrated and wanted to leave as soon as possible.
Awful management of a professional team, you will never see that in RM, Barcelona, Juventus, Bayern etc..
