Former Arsenal midfielder Paul Merson has made a stunning transfer verdict about the Manchester United duo of Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez.

The ex-Three Lions of England international spoke about Lukaku and Sanchez while he was doing his punditry work with popular English media platform Sky Sports.

Paul Merson said that Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez could be worth £200m in the next two weeks if they start to churn out impressive performances for the Red Devils.

Both players struggled while Jose Mourinho was the Manchester United manager.

They are yet to feature under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer who has masterminded an upturn in form for Manchester United with two victories from the last two league matches.

Alexis Sanchez has been nursing a hamstring injury, while Romelu Lukaku was given compassionate leave to sort out some personal issues.

The two players have returned to Manchester United training ahead of the home game against South Coast club Bournemouth and they could play a part against the Cherries at Old Trafford.

Belgian international attacker Lukaku went through a barren spell of 13 games without a goal under Mourinho this season before ending it during the 2-2 draw at Southampton, while Chilean forward Alexis Sanchez has scored just one goal this season.
