Alexis Sanchez said Arsene Wenger was trying his best to convince him to stay in the club.
Chile international moved to Manchester United in January with Henrikh Mkhitaryan going to Arsenal as a replacement.
“He didn’t want me to go from the club, and he said that I am the best player in the club and he wanted to sign new contract with me. It’s difficult to get to Manchester United, no Chilean player ever played there, and it was important move for me.” Alexis said.
