Arsène Wenger has given special dispensation to Alexis Sánchez to stay in Chile as he recovers from an ill-timed bout of flu. The Arsenal forward, who was originally due to return to England to rejoin the squad this weekend, has an extension until Tuesday.

Wenger was pleased with a solid run-out and also noted that he is open to further strengthening of his squad if he can.
