Wenger: Sanchez Joining Man United For Money

Arsene Wenger has claimed that they had “no chance” of keeping Alexis Sanchez and suggested the forward is chasing money by joining Manchester United.

“I cannot understand anybody wanting to leave Arsenal. But, in 30 years of doing transfers, you learn a lot about human beings,” Wenger said. “As a professional, it was perhaps his last contract at the top level and an important contract. After that, I accept that because we accepted that we should let him go. After that, we analyse the pros and the cons.”

“We did what we tried to do and went as far as we could. Even Manchester City moved out of it at the end. That tells you we had no chance to give him a contract.”

“We have tried to find the best possible solution and the best possible solution is that we loose a world class player – I don’t deny that at all – but we did not loose him without getting somebody after. The future will tell if it was the right decision or not.”
