Alexis Sanchez has hit out at Chilean journalists in a furious rant on Twitter after reports claimed that the Manchester United forward has split with his girlfriend Mayte Rodriguez.

Rumours about Sanchezs potential break-up with Rodriguez were triggered when fans noticed that the pair had deleted all photographs of themselves together on Instagram.

Sanchez was clearly furious with the speculation surrounding his private life and in a post on Twitter which has since been deleted, the 29-year-old revealed screenshots of several journalists attempts to contact Rodriguez.

Why is there so much evil and envy in these people? Sanchez wrote on Twitter.

Is it necessary to hurt a couple, family, friends etc … with so many lies?

Sanchez has since clarified that he has not broken up with Rodriguez but deleted the pictures on Instagram as he wants their relationship to remain out of the public eye.

Sanchez followed up his deleted post with another which said in Spanish: The envious man invents the rumour, the gossiper spreads it and the idiot believes it.

The Manchester United forward made his relationship public with Rodriguez, a Chilean actress, after the Confederations Cup in the summer of 2017.
