Chelsea head coach Antonio Conte said that the "blue" did not even try to acquire Alexis Sanchez.

The other day the Chilean striker moved from Arsenal to Manchester United.

During the winter transfer window there was information that Sanchez with the "red devils" fought London Chelsea. However, the coach of Londoners Antonio Conte refuted these rumors.

"We were never in the race for Sanchez. In general, never, "- said the Italian.

"In particular, we did not try to buy Alexis because of his salary requirements," said Comte.

Earlier Thierry Henry denied the information that he advised Sanchez to leave Arsenal.
