Alexis Sanchez did not talk to any of his teammates in the dressing room following the 3-3 draw to Bournemouth.

The 28-year-old striker was visibly frustrated on the pitch during and after the game against the Cherries, firstly exchanging some harsh words with Aaron Ramsey and then throwing his gloves to the floor when the final whistle blew.

According to John Cross of the Daily Mirror, one source suggested the Chile international was angry at seeing players celebrate their fightback as he saw a point at Bournemouth as a bad result if they are to mount a serious title challenge.

Sanchez still has 18 months left to run on his existing deal at the Emirates and with no signs of extending his stay, combined with his visible frustration over the past few weeks, many fear that he could be on his way out of Arsenal.

Reports claim Arsenal have offered him a new deal worth £180,000-a-week to stay, but there is supposed interest from Inter Milan, Juventus and Chinese Super League club Hebei Fortune China, who are willing to offer the striker a monstrous £300,000-a-week.

Success and improved terms is what Sanchez craves, but can Arsenal offer both? This remains to be seen.
