What’s special about the former Man United star’s £750,000 supercar collection?

Alexis Sanchez doesn’t play with quantity but focuses on quality, from the “monster” Bentley Bentayga worth £160,000 to the luxury Audi that was damaged in an accident.

Alexis Sanchez has left the Premier League after an unhappy ending at MU. However, the Chilean player still earns quite a bit in Manchester thanks to a salary of £350,000 per week. Including his time at Arsenal, Barcelona, ​​Inter, and Marseille, Sanchez has pocketed a total of £115 million throughout his career.

So Sanchez does not spare money for hobbies and interests. The Inter striker raises four very pampered dogs and lives a luxurious life. In particular, Sanchez also splurged on a fleet of supercars worth more than 750,000 pounds

However, the 34-year-old player had his driver’s license revoked in Chile for speeding when driving at 154 km/h on a road with a maximum limit of 120 km/h on the outskirts of the capital Santiago.

Let’s explore the supercars of former MU and Arsenal stars

BENTLEY BENTAYGA: £160,000

Like former teammate David de Gea, who has an impressive car collection, Sanchez added a luxury SUV to his collection in 2019.

However, Sanchez did not follow the trend of buying a Rolls Royce Wraith of his teammates Paul Pogba and Romelu Lukaku. The Chilean player chose the “monster” Bentley Bentayga, capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4 seconds. Sanchez spent up to 160,000 pounds to own this luxury car.

This 5-door 4×4 is equipped with a V8 engine (last used in an F1 car in 2013), 4-wheel drive and can reach a maximum speed of 290 km/h. The black version that Sanchez chose has a slight improvement in both performance and design. Mansory, a luxury car tuning company from Germany, has added some unique highlights to the wheels and diamond-polished rim surfaces. In addition, Mansory also intervened to help the car become stronger, increasing the maximum speed by 16 km/h thanks to increased torque.

BENTLEY CONTINENTAL GT: £186,000

The Bentayga isn’t the only Bentley in Sanchez’s collection. The former MU striker also owns a Continental GT, another “fierce beast” from the British car brand.

Like the Bentayga, the GT is equipped with a V8 engine. However, GT is more powerful with a maximum speed of up to 320 km/h. It can also reach 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds. The GT’s price is also higher, estimated to be between £186,000 and £273,000.

RANGE ROVER SPORT: £84,000

Not out of the trend among players, Sanchez also has a Range Rover Sport. This mid-sized SUV is much slower than the Bentley Continental GT, it takes 6.6 seconds to reach 100km/h. Speed ​​is not a focus on the Range Rover Sport, which emphasizes a comfortable experience for users.

Range Rover prices this Sport model at £84,000. It’s worth noting that Sanchez had a lot of bad luck with this car in 2018. After dinner at a restaurant, Sanchez returned to his car and discovered the front door was scratched – a small scratch. but quite expensive to fix. Just two weeks later, Sanchez was fined again by traffic police for parking on double yellow lines outside another restaurant in Wilmslow.

LAMBORGHINI HURACAN: £200,000 

Lamborghini’s supercar manufacturing technology is extremely impressive. Therefore, Alexis Sanchez did not miss the opportunity to experience this car model during his trip to Miami in 2016.

The Italian supercar is one of the fastest cars ever produced, reaching speeds from 0 to 100km/h in just 2.8 seconds. Lamborghini Huracan can reach a maximum speed of up to 325 km/h.

However, Sanchez cannot drive the Lamborghini at such terrible speeds because the speed limit in Miami is only 110 km/h. The player who then played for Arsenal was still very interested in driving a rented Lamborghini Huracan. Of course, the price to rent a Lamborghini is also sky-high, up to 2,421 pounds/day.

Because he was so passionate about Lamborghini, after returning to England, Sanchez spent 200,000 pounds to buy a Huracan to satisfy his passion for speed.
