Alexis Sanchez has admitted that his life in London can be "stressful" as he weighs up whether to continue at Arsenal next season, reports the London Evening Standard.

"I like to go to London to eat something or have a drink with my friends," Sanchez told the Arsenal magazine. "However, I am a very home-loving person and I spend a lot of time at home.

"I do explore the city if I have the time for it but normally I would rather stay relaxed at home. London can be a stressful place because it's crowded and it's a big city.

"Our routines as footballers can be energy-consuming too. You play one game after another, meet new people every day and travel a lot. That is why I try to disconnect and relax as soon as I get some time off."
