He has wasted no time getting his world famous Golden Retrievers, Atom and Humber, decked out in his new side's kit.

And as you can see, Sanchez is certainly not leading them a-stray as they pup other tail-waggers to shame.

Although you may have expected them to have the number ca-nine on the back, the South American instead opted to go with his own name shirt identity - although we are sure the pair are unlikely to pick a bone with their owner over the matter.

The dog became cult heroes among Arsenal supporters as Sanchez proved he was barking mad for his furry friends throughout his time in North London.

He has shared numerous images in the past of his loveable mutts - although Gooners might be feeling a little woof after the pair's apparent switch in allegiance.

Sanchez is currently living in the Lowry Hotel in Manchester city centre after finally completing his swap deal to United from Arsenal that saw Henrikh Mkhitaryan go in the other direction.

He looks to be delighted at the switch as he wasted no time in sharing the images of him relaxing with his family and beloved furry companions.

And he has wasted no time in trying to score some points with dog lovers in the red side of town.

Sanchez could make his debut for United on Friday in the FA Cup clash at minnows Yeovil.

However, Jose Mourinho may opt to save his new man for a return to North London.

The Red Devils travel to Wembley to take on Tottenham - bitter foes of Sanchez's old employers Arsenal - for a bumper Premier League showdown.
