According to new reports coming out from France, English premier league giants Chelsea have now opened talks with Arsenal star player Alexis Sanchez’s entourage.
The Stamford Bridge club looks set to pull off a major summer deal as the transfer window approaches.
It was reported that not only Chelsea are trying to get his signature, but Ligue I giants PSG are also seeking him, and both Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain have spoken with Sanchez’s agent on a number of occasions. And now, the Arsenal management are no longer very much confident that the Chile international will remain at the club.
Even though his contract will expire at the end of next season, he has reportedly grown frustrated at the lack of progress under French boss Arsene Wenger. And so, French source RMC Sport stated that the Gunners are now willing to sell him for £43 million in the upcoming summer.
It was also added that Arsenal are reluctant to let the star forward join a Premier League rival like Chelsea – so PSG are now favourites to get his signature.
Also, Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is said to be a huge fan of Sanchez and the former Juventus boss may attempt to convince him to wait for another year before coming over to west London. However, PSG could complete a deal this summer.
