Arsenal star duo will not be sold in January claims Martin Keown
Arsenal duo Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez are entering the last six months of their contracts.
Neither player has yet to sign an extension and both could end up leaving as a free agent at the end of the season.
Alternatively the Gunners could cash in and sell both players in January – if they find a suitor.
Arsenal legend and football pundit Martin Keown does not believe either player will be sold.
In fact he believes that Ozil and Sanchez are keen on staying. Keown claims both players still have faith in the club as well.

“I believe that they believe in the football club,” Keown told BT Sport.
“They have to do well between now and the end of the season and then go with everyone’s blessing.
“Wenger wants them at the club. He wants the best players, that’s all he’s ever interested in – he is not interested in getting any money in for them.
“I think they should stay at the club and give their best and lets hope they qualify for the Champions League.”
Ozil currently has three goals and five assists in all competitions for the Gunners.
The playmaker of Turkish origin has yet to confirm whether he will sign a new deal or leave the club.
