Sanchez is staying at Arsenal and has been told that a move to Manchester City or Chelsea will not happen this summer. The Chilean returned to the club from his summer break on Tuesday, and Arsene Wenger has already told him a transfer away from the Emirates will not happen.
Despite having just 12 months left on his Arsenal deal, Wenger does not want to sell Sanchez to a direct rival. Sanchez staying at Arsenal for another season will be met with plenty of optimism by supporters. Many were resigned to losing the Chilean ahead of the 2017-18 season.
Sanchez had been dreaming of a move to Manchester City to once again hook up with former Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola. The two will have to wait another year, or at least until January, for a move to happen.
Sanchez will be allowed to walk away for free in a year’s time, unless Arsenal can come to terms with him over a new contract. According to reports from the Metro, Wenger could still be swayed into selling the attacking midfielder, but only to a team outside of England.
