Alexis Sanchez

[HelloCity]

Strap yourselves in.

This is going to be worse than the De Bruyne/Wolfsberg saga.

If it happens, don't expect it before the end of July. Well into August imo.

Doing a podcast later will have an update on Sanchez/Arsenal/Bayern.

positive news ?

I don't think Wenger will allow a Nasri style situation with Sanchez. He is too big a star.

I would be surprised if he lets him go anywhere, before signings are made, to placate the fams & blads though.

Tea time 120%?

He sounds well spoken on these podcasts, yet he calls it tea time.

No chance. 1 year left on the contract, player has all the power.

Honestly if I was Arsenal I would try and get £50million from us and ship him off as soon as possible then go out with that £50million and just buy Lacazette and move on without Sanchez, you get a full pre season then with a world class striker and by the time the season comes around the Sanchez scars will have healed somewhat.

Too much common sense in this post !

I think most of us believe Kroenke will reason that £50 million for a player with one year on his contract is preferable to nothing, possible mutiny in the dressing room and still no CL in a year. But we don't know if Wenger was given more say over transfers (than he had in 2011) as part of the agreement for his new contract. Personally I doubt it .....

LOL.

And Arsenal have the power to not sell him till the last week in the transfer window

Shouldn't need to be said, but the Kicker (magazine) report that Bayern are willing to give Sanchez €25m annually is complete bullshit.

And Arsenal have the power to not sell him till the last week in the transfer window

Ultimately, that also seems unlikely.

If Arsenal are going to sell him, and the chances they hold onto him if he doesn't extend are zero, then they are better off doing it earlier and investing the money into signings of their own. Leaving it to the last week is a waste of potentially £50m that could be funneled to signings to placate the fanbase.
