Manager Arsene Wenger was forced to field questions about the future of the the two superstars, who are both out of contract in summer 2018, after rumours surfaced linking Sanchez with a possible move to Chelsea.
When asked of his chances of keeping the pair, Wenger responded: "It depends what you call the long-term. Eighteen months is quite long in football.
"These players have 18 months contracts. No matter what happens they will stay 18 months and we hope longer.
"At some stage you will accept negotiations are private and secret. We're professional and work until the last day of our contracts."

"If I had a choice Ozil could go tomorrow," Gunners fan Anthony told talkSPORT's Jason Cundy.
"I've never thought he was that great a player, I think he's a bit overrated if I'm being honest.
"Sanchez, I would personally break the bank to keep him."keep hold of their best players, many fans are resigned to at least one of the deadly duo being shipped out.

"Alexis Sanchez's performance at the weekend was phenomenal," he told Gabby Logan on The Premier League Show.
"I really think he's put himself in that bracket - just behind Messi and Ronaldo."
