Pep Guardiola reportedly wants to make Alexis Sanchez his first Manchester City signing

PEP GUARDIOLA is reportedly eyeing up a stunning move for Arsenal forward Alexis Sanchez as his first Manchester City signing.

 

The Bayern Munich manager is expected to leave Germany when his contract expires at the end of the current season.

It is believed that City will move for Guardiola next summer despite Manuel Pellegrini signing a new deal in August.

And the former Barcelona boss is already making transfer plans for his arrival in Manchester. 

 

According to Spanish outlet Fichajes, Guardiola has told City to make Arsenal's Sanchez his first signing at the club.

The Spaniard signed the Chile international at Barcelona from Udinese following his exploits at the 2010 World Cup.

Real Madrid also hold an interest in the Arsenal star but the Gunners are determined to keep him at the club.

City have a history of signing Arsenal players with Emmanuel Adebayor, Samir Nasri, Gael Clichy and Bacary Sagna all moving to the Ethiad from the Emirates.
