Juventus convinced tempting Alexis Sanchez away from Arsenal

Juventus are convinced they can tempt Alexis Sanchez away from Arsenal.

The Sun says the Italian champions have made no secret of their desire to capture the Chilean after chasing him in the last transfer window.

Sporting director Giuseppe Marotta claims Juventus failed with a £34million bid for Sanchez in July, despite apparently meeting the asking price set by Arsenal.

But the Gunners could be wishing they cashed in after so far failing to convince Sanchez to pen a new deal at the Emirates.

Arsene Wenger has allegedly offered Sanchez a wage increase taking him to £180,000-a-week, but the player is said to be holding out for almost double that.

Tuttosport says Juventus will look to take advantage of Sanchez's uncertain future by launching a final 'take-it-or-leave-it' bid next summer.

It's reckoned Juve chiefs are still 'dreaming' of fielding Sanchez alongside Gonzalo Higuain and Paulo Dybala.
