Man City midfielder says having Alexis Sanchez in the team would be great

Manchester City midfielder Kevin de Bruyne says Alexis Sanchez would "add something to the team" should he join Manchester City from Arsenal this month.

Arsenal accepted a £60m bid from City for Sanchez on deadline day in August last year, but the deal collapsed.

City planned to sign Sanchez for free when his contract expired in the summer but Gabriel Jesus' two‑month absence with a knee injury may expedite a deal.

Meanwhile, Sanchez is expected to start for Arsenal when they will play Chelsea in the first leg of the Carabao Cup semifinal at 9am today.
