Alexis Sanchez to get a mega contract?

Arsenal are destined to lose their star man Alexis Sanchez as his contract will come to an end next summer. The Chilean winger seems to be in no mood to renew his contract in the North London club.

He was constantly linked to a move away from Emirates to Etihad last summer but Arsenal decided to keep hold of him. According to the mirror, Sanchez could be heading to Etihad on and earn as much as £400k a week. Manchester City would not face any trouble meeting his wages as they would save money by not paying any transfer fee for him.

An exit already?

When AC Milan signed Leonardo Bonnucci for €35 million in the summer, it was seen as a coup. The Italian giants had spent a lot of money as they tried to renovate the squad and announced former Juventus defender as their captain.

But the things haven't gone as planned. AC Milan have had a bad season so far. They are languishing in the 8th spot in the table and Bonucci is said to be unhappy with the situation. According to Gazzetta Dello Sport, Bonucci is considering a move away from Milan as Manchester City and Chelsea are keeping tabs on him.
