Manchester United are keeping their eyes on Udinese winger Alexis Sanchez as a replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo, according to Datasport.it.

The Red Devils are about to receive a world record fee for the Portuguese star who is set to complete his blockbuster move to Real Madrid soon. Reports in Italy claim United are back on Sanchez's tail after showing an interest in him last year.

The 20-year-old Chilean international has been outstanding for the Friulani since joining them from River Plate last year. Voices claim Sir Alex Ferguson is keeping Sanchez in mind, though reports in England  also claim the manager is keen on Bayern Munich star Franck Ribery as Ronaldo's replacement.

Bayern Munich are playing hardball over the French ace and Sanchez could be the alternative at Old Trafford. The Chile star will not be cheap though as Udinese have refused a €25million bid from Bayern for their man.
