Chilean Alexis Sánchez is reportedly negotiating with Internacional de Porto Alegre to play in the Brasileirão starting mid-year, when his contract with Sevilla ends. The information was released by Brazilian journalist Lucas Collar, who claims that the club from Rio Grande do Sul sees financial viability in acquiring the forward.

According to the newspaper Mundo Deportivo, the possibility of playing in Brazil is of interest to Alexis Sánchez. He joined Sevilla from Udinese with the expectation of being a key player, but he hasn't managed to maintain consistency.

In 12 games, he scored two goals — one of them against Barcelona, from a penalty — and provided one assist. Despite some standout performances, such as against Real Madrid, he lost his place in the team.

An idol in Chile and with stints at giants like Barcelona, Manchester United, Arsenal, and Inter Milan, the “Niño Maravilla” would be a major attraction for Brazilian football. If the deal progresses, it will be one of the main moves in the South American market.
