Alexis Sanchez has revealed that he has made a decision over his future but is refusing to confirm that he will stay at Arsenal.
The 28-year-old has just one year remaining on his current contract and is one of Manchester City’s priority targets for the summer transfer window.
Pep Guardiola’s side are understood to be confident of securing a deal, despite Arsenal’s insistence that they will not be forced into a sale if the forward refuses to sign a new deal.
Sanchez, however, has reportedly made City his first-choice destination and is keen on being reunited with Guardiola, who he worked under at Barcelona.
When asked if he will be Claudio Bravo’s team-mate at City next season during a press conference with Chile’s national team, Sanchez replied: ‘Good question! Right now I’m focused on the Confederations Cup.
‘When this is finished I will see if I stay or go. I don’t know.’
Asked if his decision is clear in his mind, Sanchez replied: ‘Yes, it’s clear. But I can’t tell you.’
When directly asked by Sky Sports about his chances of staying at Arsenal, the Chilean said: ‘I don’t know, my friend. I don’t know.’
