Manchester City is closing in on signing Chilean striker Alexis Sanchez before the looming transfer deadline.
Manchester City are hoping to sign Chilean striker Alexis Sanchez before the looming transfer deadline on Thursday. Sanchez requested permission to leave his World Cup qualifier training camp to iron out his personal commitments in London. Manchester City are reported to hand out a £70 million offer to the Gunners and are prepared to add either defender Jason Denayer or midfielder Raheem Sterling to ensure the striker joins manager Pep Guardiola.
Sanchez’s lack of interest was clear when his team was handed a 4-0 drubbing at Anfield last weekend. This debacle sees Wenger in trouble as he could lose two key players this Thursday the 31st of August, mounting more pressure for the already-skating-on-thin-ice manager. Sanchez could be well on his way to featuring in this year’s UEFA Champions League when he sports the light blue Manchester City jersey.
