Sanchez yet to demand Arsenal exit, says Wenger

Alexis Sanchez has not demanded to leave Arsenal and is expected to remain at the club, according to his manager Arsene Wenger.

The Chile forward has less than 12 months remaining on his current contract with the Gunners and is yet to sign terms on a fresh deal.

"The players have contracts and we expect them to respect their contracts. That's what we want," Wenger said after the squad's arrival in Sydney for preseason 
 
When asked if Sanchez had informed him that he wanted to leave the club, Wenger said: "No"

He added: "I think the easiest way to manage a player is in the final year of his contract. It is in his interest to do as well as he can."

"Nobody knows today if Sanchez will be on his final year of his contract next season, because he can extend his contract with us at the start of the season or during the season. So it is not necessarily the last year of his contract at Arsenal Football Club", he said.
