Manchester City are reportedly "confident" of landing Alexis Sanchez after holding talks in London regarding the Arsenal forward, despite the Gunners' preference that he join Bayern Munich if he were to leave the club.
Goal's Sam Lee reported City's director of football Txiki Begiristain travelled to the English capital for the talks, and while Arsenal have "resigned themselves" to his impending departure, "it has been made clear to City" they would rather he join the Bundesliga giants.
However, Sanchez reportedly wants to reunite with Sky Blues manager Pep Guardiola, and City will look to capitalise by matching any bid from Bayern and offering higher wages.
