Udinese veteran striker Antonio di Natale says Alexis Sanchez is capable of becoming the best in the world.

Udinese have no intention of selling Sanchez, at least not until the end of the season.

"Alexis can play very well as a regular for a big club," Di Natale said.

"Sanchez is a great football and moreover he is only 22. He can still grow. He is a player who can become the No 1 in the world. I have always repeated it.

"He could easily be a regular first team player at Inter, Milan or Juve."
