Alexis Sanchez snub shaking Wenger’s hand in Arsenal training

Gunners were training ahead of flying to Serbia for their Europa League game with Red Star

ALEXIS SANCHEZ has appeared to snub a handshake from Arsene Wenger at training.

Video footage shows Sanchez head out for a session with team-mates ahead of the Gunners’ Europa League clash with Red Star Belgrade.

The Chile forward strolls out behind fellow contract rebel Mesut Ozil at the start of the clip.

Sanchez is soon joined by Nacho Monreal, who puts an arm around his pal.

As the three players get closer to the centre of a training pitch, Wenger turns to catch their eye.

Wenger extends his hand for Ozil while Monreal and Sanchez continue talking.

Sanchez steers clear of his boss but Monreal veers towards Wenger to greet him.

Wenger then looks at Sanchez but the wantaway ace has his head down and seems to ignore the Frenchman.

Sanchez has thrown a string of strops over the last six months and is almost certain to leave The Emirates.

Earlier this season he could be seen smirking on the bench when Alexandre Lacazette missed a chance against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

The Gunners were training at their London Colney base today ahead of flying to Belgrade this afternoon.

Both Sanchez and Ozil are out of contract in the summer.

But while there is no interest in Ozil, who is keen to sign on, Sanchez is wanted by Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain.

Manchester United boss Pep Guardiola is also thought to be keeping tabs on Sanchez’s situation.
