Alexis Sanchez

The Arsenal forward has been pining for a way out of the Emirates for a little over two years at this point.  He has a phenomenal talent level and at 28 would be a valuable addition to the blues.  If Chelsea can add Sanchez it would see them gain places in the table with automatic effect.

The Arsenal player is going to run out of contract this summer and Chelsea can most likely be talked into a move for the Arsenal player.

Rumor has it that Manchester City are in the chase at the moment but there’s no reason that Chelsea couldn’t steal in on this.  Offering the player a more significant amount of playing time as well as the opportunity to keep his family in London could be just the trick.

With his contract done in the summer it will be interesting to see what happens in January.  Chelsea should pay the inflated fee that Manchester City will drive up.  Signing Sanchez changes the level of the team dramatically in a day.
