Arsenal kick started the Premier League campaign in an exciting fashion by beating Leicester City 4-3 at the Emirates last Friday.
The North Londoners have adequately strengthened their squad this summer and now they must hold on to the key stars.
Alexis Sanchez’s future has been unclear for quite some time and the latest reports are very intriguing.
According to Don Balon, Arsenal have put a proposal on the table for Real Madrid to send the Chilean international to Bernabeu and hire the services of Karim Benzema in exchange.

The Spanish source have mentioned that Sanchez would not make a fuss about joining the Los Blancos despite having played for Barcelona. Moreover, Arsene Wenger is a huge admirer of Benzema and hence the Gunners have put forward the swap deal.
However, it is further stated that Zidane sees the 29-year-old center forward as a key member of his squad and the European Champions have completely ruled out the possibility of letting him leave.
Karim’s current deal with Madrid will expire in 2019 and he is earning around £275,000-a-week (Star). As per the provided Don Balon link, Real are already working to extend his contract.
Arsenal have already signed a top center forward this summer by luring Lacazette and they do not really need another striker. If they do sell Alexis then a quality playmaker must be signed as his replacement.
