€60m man is the ‘hottest candidate’ for transfer, big Arsenal move down to Wenger

 

Links between Alexis Sanchez and Bayern Munich are growing in the German media. On Friday Bild label the Chilean the ‘hottest candidate’ for a big summer Bayern Munich transfer.

Earlier this week SportBild claimed some kind of contact had already been initiated, and it helps Bayern that Sanchez’s agent Fernando Felicevich also represents Arturo Vidal, so they have experience of working with him.

It’s worth reiterating that SportBild pointed out when Vidal was at Juventus, Bayern felt used by Felicevich to get the player a better deal in Turin. He moved in the end, but SportBild believe a transfer had previously been talked up in order to get Vidal a better contract, they don’t rule that out with Sanchez.

Back to Bild, it’s believed a deal could be done for ‘just under’ €60m, and Bayern like Sanchez’s flexibility, knowing he could play in the same set-up as Robert Lewandowski.

Bild believe Bayern Munich would be a preferred destination in Arsenal’s eyes, the reasoning beingthey’re not Manchester City or Chelsea.

Arsene Wenger has decisions to make, but he’ll hope, and perhaps suspect, that it’s all agent games to get the Chilean an even bigger contract.
