Alexis Sanchez’s last season in the Premier League with Manchester United was less than ideal.
But that didn’t stop the Chilean from making a lot of money from his time at the club. His £350,000-a-week contract made sure of that.

Bentley Bentayga Black Edition – £160,000+
Sanchez chose to get an SUV in 2019 to add to his collection.
Sanchez added a luxury SUV to his collection, just like his former teammate David de Gea, who has an impressive collection of cars.
But unlike his former teammates Paul Pogba and Romelu Lukaku, who bought a Rolls-Royce Wraith for £250,000, Sanchez bought a Bentley Bentayga.
The monster Bentley, which could go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just four seconds, could cost between £156,000 and £259,000.
This five-door 4×4 has a V8 engine, which F1 cars haven’t used since 2013, four-wheel drive, and a top speed of 180mph.
Sanchez chose the Black Edition because it was a little faster and looked a little better.
German luxury car customization company Mansory added their own special touch to the wheels and diamond-polished rim surface.
During the work with Mansory, the car also got a power boost. The top speed went up by 10 mph, and the torque went up.

Bentley Continental GT – £186,000
Sanchez has more Bentley cars than just the Bentayga.
He also has a Continental GT, which is another Bentley beast.
The GT has a V8 engine, just like the Bentayga.
The GT, on the other hand, has more power than its sister car and can go faster, up to 198mph.
Also, it can go from 0 to 60 mph in only 3.9 seconds.
Estimates put the price of the GT between £186,000 and £273,000. This is more than a match.

Range Rover Sport – £84,000
Sanchez also has a Range Rover Sport, which is another British car.
The car is much slower off the line than the Bentley. It takes 6.6 seconds for the car to reach 60mph.
It also goes much slower, with a top speed of 135mph, even though Range Rovers aren’t usually made for speed.
Range Rover priced this model at £84,000, but that didn’t stop Sanchez’s car from getting a few dings and scratches in 2018.
When Sanchez got back to his car after eating at a restaurant, he saw that the front wing had been scraped. This was a small damage, but it was still expensive to fix.
Two weeks later, Sanchez’s bad luck continued when a traffic warden gave him a ticket for parking on double yellow lines in front of another restaurant in Wilmslow.

Audi R8 – £135,000+
When it comes to damage, Sanchez was lucky not to Ԁie in a car аccident when he was at Barcelona.
In 2013, early in the morning, Sanchez was driving his Audi after Barcelona beаt Espanyol in the Copa Catalunya final.
But at 2:30 a.m., Sanchez crashed into the middle barrier on an interstate near the city center.
Sanchez got in trouble with the law because he left his broken-down car in the middle of the road without telling the police.
Sanchez was picked up after the crаsh by a teammate who was not named.
Local news outlets showed pictures of the shоcking event and called it a “miracle” that Sanchez didn’t get hurt.

Lamborghini Huracan – £200,000
Lamborghini’s prowess in making supercars is matched by very few, so it would make sense that Sanchez would pick one up during a trip to Miami in 2016.
The Italian-made car is one of the fastest ever made, reaching 0-60mph in just 2.8s.
It is also capable of reaching speeds of up to 201mph – not that he would be able to reach such heights due to Miami speed limit laws setting highways at 70mph.
It is a common practice to grab a rental car when visiting another country, and this was likely the case for the then-Arsenal ace too.
Such activity is expensive, however, with renters charging between £483 to £2,421 a day depending on the model.
At retail, the Huracan can go for between £164,000 to well above £200,000 depending on the model.

Planes, trains and automobiles
Sanchez has also been seen enjoying trips on luxury private jets, yachts and helicopters.
He has been spotted on a yacht with his dogs, while he also took ex-girlfriend Mayte Rodriguez on a romantic helicopter ride that landed on a private stretch of beach in South America.
