A HAMPSHIRE football club has pulled off the shock of the transfer window after announcing a Chilean superstar as its latest signing.

AFC Totton took to Twitter to joke that the club has signed Alexis Sanchez from Arsenal.

Sanchez has been linked with a move away from the Emirates Stadium this transfer window, with clubs such as Manchester United and Manchester City heavily expected to sign the forward.

However, AFC Totton confirmed what nobody expected would happen.

They said: “SIGNING: It’s true, we’ve signed Alexis Sanchez from Arsenal, fending off interest from Manchester United.”

The post has been retweeted more than 2,000 times.
