Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez has been linked with a winter window move away from the Emirates. The Chilean’s family is reportedly in London ahead of the likely move. The 29-year old is keen on moving to Manchester City to feature under former coach Pep Guardiola. However, there are strong indications that Manchester United want to wade into the deal.
The player is worth around £25-35 million as his deal with the Emirates is less than six months out. Guardiola want cover for the injured Gabriel Jesus, with Sergio Aguero the only option in centre forward. The Catalan manager is very open to the idea of a false nine, which he employed while at Barcelona. Sanchez fits this role very well but the deal depends on so many factors.
