Alexis Sanchez could turn his back on Arsenal to take up a megabucks deal in China.

According to a report in The Sun advisors for the striker are exploring options for the striker to move to China where he could more than double his current wages of £130,000 per week.

Arsenal are keen to extend the contract of the former Barcelona striker but with his current deal running until 2018 the next six months will be critical.

With wages inflation going through the roof Sanchez has held back from signing a new deal knowing that the upward trend as his contract ticks down leaves him holding all the aces.

Arsene Wenger has been delighted by the contribution of the Chilean striker although his commitment to international football has caused a strain on the relationship between club and player.

Getting Sanchez and Mesut Ozil are the signing priorities at The Emirates with the club well aware of what is on offer elsewhere.

Sanchez has no qualms about moving to China for more money having switched from Udinese to Barcelona and onto Arsenal with the cash on offer the main motivation.
