2 January signings that will make Manchester City’s season

Alexis Sanchez

Alexis Sanchez has still yet to sign a new and improved deal at Arsenal and, even though there are positive vibes coming out of the club, until the Chilean signs on the dotted line, there is going to speculation and uncertainty regarding his future.

The 28-year-old has been one of the best players in the Premier League so far this season, netting 12 goals and laying on seven assists for Arsene Wenger’s side.

His deployment in a more advanced role has brought the best out of him and several other Gunners players, so it’s clear that he is one of the most important players in that Arsenal squad, and it seems that he wants a new contract to reflect that.

Guardiola worked with Sanchez during their time together at Barcelona, so he knows what sort of player he’ll be getting, and his experience of and clear ability in English football means he would hugely benefit City.

The Manchester club have the financial power to bring Sanchez to the Etihad Stadium, and the longer his contract saga rumbles on at Arsenal, the more likely it is that a club like City could come in for him.
