Alexis joins United in a straight swap for Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

“Look, we have a strong squad that doesn't only depend on one player," Wenger said. “If Alexis Sanchez goes somebody else will come in who has quality.

“It's not a case of us only losing a player, we gain a player. We are still active on the transfer market. We still try to bring players in.

“The advantage of that whole [Sanchez] situation is that we get a player in [Mkhitaryan] who has a long contract and is committed to do well."
