Wenger: Arsenal will try to get Alexis to extend contract

The ever optimist that is Arsene Wenger told the media in his press
conference today, that the club will try to extend Alexis Sanchez's
contract beyond this season.

The 28 year old has entered the final year of his contract, and so far
he has refused to sign an extension.

The Frenchman is optimistic that an agreement could still be found to
get the Chilean to sign an extension.

"It is always possible,"

"We will try to extend it. There is no reason why we shouldn't do it.
We are not there yet." he told his press conference.

All summer, he has been linked with a move to several clubs, because
of his contract situation, one of those clubs is French side PSG, and
Wenger was quick to pour cold water on the reports on Tuesday that
claimed the Ligue 1 side were preparing a bid of £80m for the Chilean,
insisting there have been no contact with PSG as their interest lies
elsewhere.

"It was certainly very busy to complete the transfer of Neymar. I did
not speak with Nasser [PSG President] for some months now.

"I am not expecting him to get in touch either, if you read the French
papers they are on Mbappe's case."
