In a candid interview, Alexis Sanchez has picked out the Arsenal player who is tough to play against in training.

The Chilean international is recognized for his industrious and passionate attitude on the pitch which saw him score 30 goals in all competitions last season.

He was joined at Arsenal this summer by Sead Kolasinac who finished last term in the Bundesliga team of the season.

And according to Sanchez, the Gunners’ new signing from Bosnia is certainly a tough opponent to face in training.

“It’s tough [against him in training] because he’s strong and he’s hard to get around!” Alexis said

“He’s a very experienced player and he’s really strong.

“When it matters [in games], he finds me and makes good passes so I can score. He is an intelligent player who can create good goalscoring opportunities.

“He’s already demonstrated his quality. He’s scored goals, provided assists and shown what he can do both in European and league games.”
