Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke reveals talks still ongoing with Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil over new deals
Kroenke insists: 'We want to attract top players, keep top players and those guys are top players. We’d love to keep them'
ARSENAL are still doing their utmost to keep Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil.
Owner Stan Kroenke says "we want to attract top players, keep top players and those guys are top players".
