Despite Arsenal's reluctant to sell, Manchester City has become increasingly confident of signing Alexis Sanchez.

Sanchez could leave Arsenal in a year for free.

Sanchez has refused to sign a new deal. Arsenal has offered £250,000 per week but he could receive closer to £300,000 per week with City.

Pep Guardiola signed Sanchez for Barcelona in 2011 from Udinese.
