Bayern Munich shocked by £420,000-a-week Alexis Sanchez demands

Bayern Munich fear Arsenal ace Alexis Sanchez will refuse to drop his personal demands.

The Mirror says Sanchez has told the Bundesliga champions that he wants a £21.85million-a-year package to move to Munich.

That works out at an incredible £420,000-a-week following the fall of the pound against the Euro – and would wreck Bayern's strict wage structure.

The Bavarian club's hierarchy has been shocked by the figures being quoted to land the 28-year-old forward.

And the growing belief in Munich is that Sanchez wants to join Manchester City and is trying to force Arsenal's hand.

The Gunners will demand £50 million for Sanchez – and are adamant that they will hold him for the final year of his contract rather than sell him to a Premier League rival.
