PHOTOS: Arsenal's Big Money Signing Training At The London Colney For The First Time

Arsenal’s Alexis Sanchez trained with his new team mates for the first time on Friday. The £35m rated winger took part in a full session at London Colney ahead of the Emirates Cup, where the Gunners will face Benfica and AS Monaco in their pre season preparations ahead of the brand new 2014-15 season.

It  would be interesting to see what role Sanchez is asked to player by manager Arsene Wenger who would well know the Chilean’s knack for goal scoring prowess, the 25-year old scored 47 goals in 141 appearances for Barcelona during his presence at the Catalan outfit.

With the plethora of midfielders at his disposal, Wenger would be tempted to play Sanchez in a more advanced role, relieving of his defensive contribution so as to take up his goals coring attributes to take the pressure off Olivier Giroud up front.

Sanchez as it appears looks in fantastic shape and will look to gel well with his team mates at London, hoping to strike a cordial bond as soon as the season kicks off where Arsenal will look to mount a serious Premier League title challenge.
