Arsenal have denied claims Alexis Sanchez has handed in a transfer request.
Sanchez has less than 11 months remaining on his current contract and is yet to sign terms on a fresh deal at the Emirates.
Alexis is a transfer target for Manchester City, but Arsene Wenger wants to keep Sanchez and says he hopes the Chile international will extend his contract.
Sanchez made his first appearance of the new Premier League season in the defeat to Liverpool having been given extra time off in the summer after competing for Chile at the Confederations Cup in Russia.
Sanchez enjoyed his most prolific scoring campaign for Arsenal last season, netting 30 goals in 51 appearances having been deployed in a central striking role.
