da brdice: Alexis Sanchez wants to stay in London with a “winning” club and while many joined the dots to align the Arsenal attacker with Chelsea (who are reportedly keen on him) nobody stopped to consider Crystal Palace, did they?
da bet nacional: Well, it seems someone has, with 24 Horas in Sanchez’s homeland naming the Eagles as a potential capital club for him. As part of a video on the saga, they went through a list of London-based teams (including SPURS) in relation to the talk of a move being on the agenda, with Selhurst Park mentioned as a destination.
We’re sure they weren’t being entirely serious, but some Palace fans have seized upon a tweet from Matias Grez (@matias_grez) drawing attention to this baffling bit of news.
Naturally, the responses flooded in and they were so hilarious we thought we’d share the very best ones with you.
Would Sanchez get in ahead of Wilfried Zaha? Who knows, but what we do know is the Eagles have been in a cup final more recently than both Arsenal and Chelsea…
