Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka is urging Alexis Sanchez to forget about leaving.

The Swiss isn't surprised, though, that Europe's biggest clubs are chasing the Chilean.

Manchester City have been closely linked, while Bayern Munich are eyeing a deal for Alexis, who is out of contract at the Emirates next summer.

Xhaka has seen Sanchez at close quarters, and when asked whether he will leave: “I hope not, of course.

“He has qualities on the pitch which are incomprehensible. He has made many goals, and is also enormously important outside."
