'Maybe We Can Kill Him': Sevilla Boss Jokes About Taking Drastic Measures to Stop Alexis Sanchez

Sevilla manager Vicenzo Montella has joked that killing Alexis Sanchez may be the only way to stop the Manchester United forward, when the two sides meet in Spain on Wednesday night.

Jose Mourinho's United have travelled to Andalusia for their Champions League round of 16 first leg tie with the five-time Europa League winners as favourites, and Montella has identified January signing Sanchez as the danger man for his side to watch out for.

"I remember him really well from his stay in Italy," Montella said of Sanchez (via the Standard), who played for Udinese between 2006 and 2011 before moving to Barcelona.
