Alexis Sanchez will leave Arsenal, Owen says…

BT Sport pundit Michael Owen believes that Alexis Sanchez’s time at Arsenal is coming to an end with the Chilean out of contract next summer.

Alexis was close to departing for Manchester City on deadline day, but a failed bid on our behalf for Thomas Lemar ended his hopes of a reunion with Pep Guardiola.

Despite reports of us offering the forward a contract that would make him the highest paid player in the league, he seems staunch in his belief that his future lies elsewhere.

After helping us to back-to-back Premier League wins for the first time this season, Owen only sees an impending exit as the next stage in the saga surrounding Alexis.

“If he’s in football and interested in securing himself for the rest of his life financially, he’ll leave,” Owen said on BT Sport after the game.

“If he’s interested in winning medals, then he’ll leave. There’s no way possible that he can stay in my eyes.”

While many despise Owen’s very existence, few can argue with his assessment of the situation.

Financially and professionally, it doesn’t look like we can satisfy Alexis while he’s fluttering his eyelids at Manchester City.
