Alexis Sanchez hints on his future

Chile international and Arsenal forward, Alexis Sanchez said he has already decided if he will leave Arsenal this summer or not.

The forward, however, said he will not disclose his decision until after the Confederations Cup.

Sanchez, who still has a year remaining on his current deal, has refused to commit his future to the club.

Arsenal’s fifth-place finish in the Premier League last season means they miss out on a spot in the Champions League which has further fuel to rumours that he could leave the club.

The attacker has been linked with Bayern Munich and Manchester City, although the Bundesliga champions appear to have cooled their interest due to his large price tag.

The 28-year-old appeared at a press conference on Friday alongside Manchester City’s Claudio Bravo and was asked directly whether he would be joining the goalkeeper at the Etihad Stadium.

He said, “Right now I’m focused on the Confederations Cup. When this is finished I will see if I stay or go.”

Pressed further, he added, “Yes [my future] is clear, but I can’t tell you.”

Commenting on his performance at the FIFA Confederation Cup, Sanchez said, “My individualism can sometimes play against me, but I know I need my team-mates and they need me.

“We are here to make history, we have beaten Spain, Argentina … we can beat anyone.”
