Alexis Sanchez: Up to Arsenal now to strike a deal

Alexis Sanchez says he is “very happy” at Arsenal but insists it is up to the club to come up with a deal to keep him at the Emirates Stadium.

The 27-year-old has 18 months remaining on his contract but both he and team-mate Mesut Ozil are reportedly seeking parity with the Premier League’s top earners before extending their deals.

Sanchez has been linked with a £500,000 a week move to the Chinese Super League, with Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger unhappy with continued questioning regarding the future of his top goalscorer.
