Arsenal forward Alexis Sanchez looks likely to leave Arsenal in the summer according to a number of reports who say he was dropped following a training ground bust-up ahead of the Liverpool game.

Sanchez - whose future is in doubt due as he is in the last 18 months of his contract - was left out of the team to face Liverpool with Arsene Wenger telling reporters that he wanted to use Olivier Giroud and Danny Welbeck to play a more direct game.

However now many of the national newspapers, including the Guardian, the Mirror, the Telegraph and the Mail, are all reporting that there was a huge training ground row between Sanchez and some of his team-mates.

 

The Telegraph's report says that while Mesut Ozil, also locked in contract stand-off with Arsenal, was ill and therefore unable to play against Liverpool, he may well have been dropped anyway.
Sanchez likely to leave - PSG favourites

The Mirror and the Mail in particular are pushing the line that Sanchez will leave in the summer, and that his relationship with Wenger has broken down and he no longer wants to sign a new deal.

The papers agree that Paris Saint-Germain are leading the chase for the Chilean with Juventus also a possible option, although doubts remain over whether he would want to return to Italy while Spain could come into the equation.

The Mirror and Mail report that PSG would be willing to offer Sanchez £300,000 a week, far more than his current deal at Arsenal.
