Manchester City may have led the race for Alexis Sanchez‘s signature over the summer, but they face increased competition from Paris Saint-Germain to sign the Arsenal forward next year, reports the Sun.
Sanchez is almost certain to leave the Gunners when his contract expires in June, with a peculiar situation highlighted by his substitute role away to Chelsea last Sunday before playing 90 minutes against Doncaster in the League Cup.
According to a report obtained from kwese.espn.com, the Chilean is free to talk to foreign clubs from January, which could allow PSG to steal a march on their rivals. The Ligue 1 side will apparently trump City’s contract offer of £275,000 a week, adding a lucrative signing-on fee on top.
It’s reported that Edinson Cavani will be allowed to leave the Parc des Princes to make way for Sanchez’s arrival in an all-star front three alongside Neymar and Kylian Mbappe.
