PSG management remain confident of landing Arsenal attacker Alexis Sanchez.

The Sun says PSG plan to snatch Sanchez on a free next summer — but will not pay for him in January.

The French giants want the Arsenal striker to replace Edinson Cavani next season.

And they are convinced Sanchez's friendship with former Barcelona team-mate Neymar will help to seal the deal.

Sanchez, 28, is in the final year of his Gunners deal and has made it clear he will not be signing a new one.

Manchester City are ready to try again in January but will only offer £20 million and Arsenal would prefer not to sell to a direct Premier League rival.

PSG believe they can get around their FFP problem by selling Cavani, who has had a bitter clash with Neymar, and bringing in Sanchez for nothing.
