Liverpool have admitted defeat in the race to sign Alexis Sanchez, Barcelona received 2 £30m+ bids from Arsenal and Liverpool for he's services which both was accepted. He had the weekend to decide on his future and he now has chosen Arsenal as he wants he family to live in London. Luiz Suarez is not holding up the deal as Barcelona have already activated he's release clause, it's Puma who have put a hold on things as they think this will be a great marketing ploy when kit is released. 10th July this will be made public.

Apparently they are waiting to see if anyone matches the valuation, possibly as sanchez wants to join juventus, they are waiting awhile, also the Eds said sanchez is on holiday so I don't expect it to happen for the next few weeks, in that time it could go very badly for us.

{Ed025's Note - it could also go very well lakes, i cant see juve matching the fee with all their money problems mate..heres hoping..

Eds because he's on Holiday do you really think it will take a couple of weeks? Surely it won't take that long?

{Ed001's Note - depends on him, this is a big decision. I mean he has Man City, Arsenal, Juve making offers. All offer a number of reasons to join them. Put yourself in his shoes, Arsenal and City can offer more money, but he has lived in Italy before and was successful. Also, after the way he has been treated by Barca, he probably wants to be sure he makes the right decision this time.}

I read somewhere that sanchez flew from brazil to barca to sort his future out so to me even if he's on his jollys there's a chance he would cut short his holiday in order to secure his move and he wants to move to londob

Infact reports suggest that Juve are now no longer in the running for sanchez, they had talks with him but pulled out as they can't compete with Arsenal

Seems Sanchez is now due to fly into london soon to complete a medical with us, with a siginificant rise on his wages to 135k a week, with a 32m price on him

Also seems Barca have given Suarez the No.9 shirt, Alexis's old number

Ed I'm not sure I can wait weeks. Media reported yesterday City have no interest in Sanchez anymore, any truth? & Italian media today all reporting Juve just don't have the money.

I understand what you're saying about the player though, hopefully AW can convince him quickly.
