Wenger doesn't want Chile risking Alexis Sanchez

Considering that Alexis Sanchez is currently suffering a hamstring injury, the Chile technical staff decided to leave him in Santiago with hopes of a possible prompt recovery for the next match against Uruguay. But this is not such good news for French manager Arsene Wenger, who doesn't want Chile risking Alexis because he could get an even worse injury. The boss spoke to beIN Sports about the chances of him recovering completely and even sent Chile a message. 

Wenger said: "I got a text last night [to say] that he has a hamstring injury. The team from Chile has traveled without him and they kept him to try and get him fit to play Uruguay for the second game on Tuesday night. We have to get access for our medical staff to the MRI scan to see what grade it is, how bad it is and make absolutely sure they don't make any suicidal decision that could harm his future for two or three months.

"That is absolutely important. It's a gray area between the national team and the club team and of course they look at their own results which I can understand but we have to preserve the health of Alexis Sanchez. He always wants to play and that's where it is a more sensitive case because he's always ready to play even when injured."
