A visa issue thought to stem from a recent tax fraud conviction relating to income earned during his time at Barcelona had seen Sanchez left behind when United players departed for California
Manager Jose Mourinho had described the blow
as 'really bad' and added that Sanchez was 'really sad' at being unable
to take part in vital pre-season training and friendlies.
But
after working to resolve the issue, United have declared that Sanchez
will now fly to America and link up with his colleagues following their
opening tour game against Mexican giants Club America at the University
of Phoenix Stadium in Arizona.
ince being left behind earlier this
week, Sanchez has continued training as normal at the club's Carrington
training ground to maintain his fitness.All being well, the former Arsenal star could be involved in the second tour game of the summer when United take on MLS side San Jose Earthquakes on 22nd July.
