da dobrowin: Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has firmly denied suggestions that the Gunners have received an offer for unsettled Chilean attacker Alexis Sanchez.
da aviator aposta: Sanchez came close to joining Manchester City last summer, but Arsenal’s failure to secure a deal for Monaco’s Thomas Lemar saw the 29-year-old remain at the Emirates Stadium.
Speculation linking Sanchez with a move to Man City has surfaced once again, with reports claiming that the Citizens have made an £30m approach for the former Barcelona forward.
Wenger, however, has insisted that it is ‘very quiet’ on the Sanchez front as the Frenchman concentrates on Wednesday’s EFL Cup semi-final first leg against Chelsea.
Wenger told reporters:
“I expect nothing, I am focused on tomorrow’s game. When solicitations happen you respond, at the moment it’s very quiet.”
Sanchez, who is valued at £63m by transfermarkt.co.uk, will see his contract with Arsenal expire at the end of the 2017-18 campaign.
The 29-year-old’s professionalism has been called into question during stages of the season, but he has scored eight times in 21 appearances in all competitions for Arsenal.
