Alexis Sanchez has used his Twitter account to deny a 'false' story published in The Sun over the weekend.
The Chilean international, whose move to Manchester United from Arsenal is imminent, was the subject of an 'exclusive' from the newspaper, in which it was claimed he had offered a student £1,000 for sex.
The story claimed Sanchez, who is in a relationship with actress Mayte Rodriquez, approached the student in a bar before he 'bombarded her with texts'.
A tweet posted on Sanchez's Twitter account on Monday denied the claims being made in the article, which featured quotes from the student.
'I'm tired of denying fake news,' Sanchez claimed in a short statement, which was posted in both English and Spanish.

Sanchez is understood to have completed a medical at United on Sunday afternoon after a leaked photograph of the 29-year-old showed him wearing the club's shirt for the first time.
The move is expected to be confirmed at some point on Monday or Tuesday, with Henrikh Mkhitaryan moving in the opposite direction as part of the deal.
