Alexis Sanchez has been strongly linked with a move to Manchester City

Arsene Wenger has insisted that Alexis Sanchez will remain at Arsenal this season.

The Gunners boss said his star striker, who has been the subject of intense transfer speculation, would accept his “clear decision”.

Alexis Sanchez returned to training on Tuesday after an extended break due to the Confederations Cup.

After Sanchez’s first open training session at the Emirates Stadium on Thursday, Wenger said: “My decision is clear, he will stay. He will accept that.

Sanchez’s contract runs out in 12 months and he has been refusing to sign a new deal.

Premier League giants Arsenal are understood have offered £275,000-a-week but Sanchez is holding out for more or a move away from North London.
