Chelsea make Arsenal star their top summer transfer target – report
Chelsea are set to go all out to try and sign Alexis Sanchez from Arsenal this summer, according to reports
Antonio Conte has told Chelsea officials to make signing Alexis Sanchez from Arsenal the Blues’ top priority in the summer transfer window, according to reports.
The Guardian is claiming that the Chelsea boss has identified the Arsenal man as his top target for the forthcoming transfer window.
Sanchez’s future at The Emirates has been a relentless source of speculation this season due to the fact that he has entered into the final 18 months of his contract at Arsenal and there does not appear to be any progress in negotiations about a new deal.
Now, the report in the British newspaper has suggested that Conte has already submitted his list of top summer transfer targets to the Chelsea hierarchy – and Sanchez is among the top players.
The article goes on to claim that Sanchez is looking increasingly likely to leave Arsenal in the summer transfer window following three years at the north London side.

Sanchez, who signed for the north London side from Barcelona back in 2014, has twice won the FA Cup with the Gunners but ended last season without a trophy.
