Will Arsenal really sell Alexis Sanchez to Manchester City?
Football pundit Richard Keys has said on Twitter that he is adamant Arsenal forward Alexis Sanchez will be a Manchester City player next season.
Sanchez has only one year remaining on his Arsenal contract and is no closer to agreeing a new deal.
Responding to a follower on Twitter, Keys said that he is sure Sanchez will be at City before the transfer window closes.
The Chile international played under Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola at Barcelona and knows him well.
Sanchez has been Arsenal’s star player since signing from Barcelona in 2014, but even with him, the Gunners could only finish in fifth place last season.
Arsenal’s Alexis Sanchez
Arsenal have been in this scenario before, last time in 2013, when they caved and sold Robin van Persie to Manchester United.
The Gunners are closing in on a club record move for Alexandre Lacazette – The Mirror report, but these celebrations would be tempered if they end up cashing in on Sanchez, especially to a Premier League rival.
