If Alexis Sanchez’s contract situation was already urgent, then Arsenal must realise the clock is now ticking if they want to keep hold of their star man.
This summer, the Chilean will have just a year left on his contract, with Mesut Ozil in the same boat.
Ozil has previously suggested, per the Guardian, that he will wait and see whether Arsene Wenger remains in charge before committing his future to the club.
Money could also be another potential factor in the pair’s decisions, as they could finally earn upwards of £200,000 a week were they to move to another European giant.
However, according to Goal, there is another reason why Sanchez is stalling as Paris Saint-Germain hover.
The forward wants to see how successful the Gunners are this season before opting to stay at the Emirates for the long haul. Judging by their recent defeats to Watford and Chelsea, it definitely doesn’t bode well.
The same source also believe that PSG will target Sergio Aguero too as they look to mount a double Premier League raid.
