£500K A WEEK ALEXIS

- BY SIMON MULLOCK

ALEXIS SANCHEZ is demanding £500,000 a week from Paris Saintgerma­in.

And that is keeping alive Manchester City’s hopes that they aren’t going to be blown away by the French club for the second time this summer.

Having lost Dani Alves to PSG earlier this month, the Blues’ Abu Dhabi owners are banking on Sanchez pricing himself out of a move to play for a club backed by rivals Qatar.

Arsenal insist that Sanchez is not for sale at any price, despite having less than 12 months left on his current deal.

And they don’t want to hand their star player to another Premier League club – even for £50million.

PSG are prepared to pay £40million – hoping that Arsenal will reluctantl­y sell Sanchez abroad.

City’s hopes have been dented by reports saying that he has met with PSG representa­tives in Paris.
