Arsenal Transfer News: Latest Rumours on Yannick Carrasco and Alexis Sanchez

Atletico Madrid attacker Yannick Carrasco is being lined up to replace Alexis Sanchez if the Chile superstar exits Arsenal.

According to Calciomercato (h/t AS), if Bayern Munich can successfully tempt Sanchez to move to the Bundesliga, Gunners manager Arsene Wenger wants Carrasco to replace his top forward.

The Atleti player could be purchased as a like-for-like replacement, providing pace and goals from a number of attacking roles.

Bayern are also interested in the Belgian attacker, but if they sign Sanchez, it will open the door for Wenger, per Calciomercato.
