Selling Sanchez Is Up To The Club Not Me -Arsene Wenger

 

Arsene Wenger has insisted the future of Alexis Sanchez will be decided by Arsenal and no one else. The manager also denied Sanchez was involved in a training ground bust-up and insisted his relationship with the Arsenal forward is normal.

Widespread reports in the national press on Monday suggested a bust-up had occurred between the 28-year-old and his team-mates prior to Saturday's 3-1 defeat at Liverpool. Sanchez was alleged to have walked out of training mid-session last week before being involved in an angry confrontation with his team-mates.

He said “Alexis Sanchez has 15 months on his contract so the decision on will he be here or not will depend completely on Arsenal Football Club, not anybody else. I am not aware, nothing happened. Nothing at all. I explained after the game at Liverpool that I decided to go for a more direct option in the game and that's what happened. That was the unique reason for my decision. For the rest, his attitude… He is a committed player, sometimes with excessive behaviour, but you have seen that many times in history in every squad.”
