Arsenal have dropped Alexis Sanchez from their team that travelled to Bournemouth for today’s clash against Bournemouth, fuelling speculations he is close to a move away from the Emirates Stadium.
The development will all but confirm speculations he is set for the Emirates exit, even though it remains unclear where his destination would be, as both Manchester clubs are keen.
On Friday, manager Arsene Wenger had planned to include the attacker in his squad for the trip to Eddie Howe’s side but the Frenchman is understood to have changed his mind after training on Saturday.
Meanwhile, midfielder Jack Wilshere is set to be included in the clash against the south coast club.
