Manchester United star Alexis Sanchez revealed he contacted Arsene Wenger to congratulate the long-serving Frenchman as he prepares to leave Arsenal.
Chile international Sanchez left Arsenal in January, having been lured to the Emirates Stadium from LaLiga giants Barcelona by Wenger in 2014.
According to him, "I have already written to him, not on social media but I wrote to him personally, I sent him my congratulations and he thanked me,".
"It's sad because he is a football legend, a gentleman who shows respect and professionalism and I only have words of gratitude for him."
He paid tribute to his former manager after scoring in United's 2-1 win over Tottenham in Saturday's FA Cup semi-final
