Alexis Sanchez wanted to seal the transfer but after the move failed materialize, he was forced to remain at the Emirates Stadium.
The former Barcelona forward is out of contract with the Gunners next summer, and Manchester City could even come back with another move for the attacker in the winter transfer window.
