Sanchez return could be delayed by illness

Published on: 28 July 2017

Alexis Sanchez's start to the season could be derailed after the Arsenal forward posted a picture on social media claiming he was ill.

Sanchez took to Instagram on Friday morning to post a picture of himself sitting wrapped in a scarf and looking miserable, with the caption "sick."

PA Sport reports that Sanchez is suffering from flu and that Arsenal are not sure as of yet if the illness will impact on his return to the club following the summer break.

The Chile international has yet to begin preseason training with his teammates following his exertions at the Confederations Cup in Russia, where he helped the Copa America champions reach the final.

Sanchez's future remains up in the air as he enters the final season of his current contract, with talks on a new deal seemingly at an impasse.
