City prepared to make Sanchez their top earner

Manchester City are preparing a huge contract offer that could see Alexis Sanchez become their highest paid player.

The Mail Online reports that City will splash out £320,000 a week to sign the Arsenal forward this summer.

It is believed through performance-based add-ons and image rights that Sanchez’s total weekly pay packet would rise close to the £400,000 a week that he has demanded from clubs, opening the door to a summer move to the Etihad.

Sanchez has been linked with a move away from the Emirates throughout the summer, with a host of clubs thought to be interested.

Pep Guardiola’s side have been the club credited with the most serious interest in signing the player, despite Arsene Wenger’s determination not to sell to a domestic rival.

There have been fears among the Arsenal camp that the player will now look to force a move to City this summer after posting pictures across social media claiming he was ‘sick’.
