Arsenal fans have found Kyle Walker’s £54m move to Manchester City pretty funny; mainly because if Pep Guardiola is willing to fork out that amount of money for the Tottenham man, he should be prepared to spend far more than that on Alexis Sanchez.
- City previously said to be willing to spend £50m on Alexis
- Arsenal reportedly demanding £80m
- Manchester City sign Walker for more than they would spend on Alexis
- Gooners demand City spend ‘£500m’ on forward
Alexis has been heavily linked with a £50m move to City this summer despite Arsenal said to be holding out for almost double that.
However, just days after Arsene Wenger said once again that Alexis won’t be going anywhere, Kyle Walker signed for City for around the same amount.
While Walker is home-grown, £54m for the 27-year-old right-back is just ridiculous.
Arsenal fans have therefore managed to get a laugh out of it at City’s expense with some even arguing that Pep’s side should have to cough up £500m if they’re going to sign Alexis – the Gunners’ best player.

If Kyle Walker is worth £45m, then Bellerin must be worth £60m and Sanchez £100m. @Arsenal

If City bought Walker for around 50mil pounds, then surely Sanchez is at least 70mil and taking into consideration the Lukaku deal, 80mil!!!

If City have really paid £50m for Walker, I demand at least £500m for Sanchez. I don't care how long he has left on his contract.

If they pay this for Walker, they should stump up £200million for Sanchez!

If Manchester Shitty could sign Walker for £50m then Arsenal should ask for £120m for Alexis Sanchez

If Walker is worth £50m then Sanchez is worth £100m+

We live in a world where Sigurdsson, Walker are worth above and Michael Keane is about the same worth as Alexis Sanchez… #justsayin -.-
