Barca to consider bids for Sanchez

Barcelona will consider purchase bids for Chilean forward Alexis Sanchez, who scored twice in his nation's World Cup campaign, club sporting chief Andoni Zubizarreta said.

"In Alexis's case, there have been movements in the market and there have been proposals," Zubizarreta told journalists.

"We will seek a solution and if it is good for him and for us, we will analyse it."

The Chilean international has demonstrated a high level of ability in Brazil, sports director Zubizarreta said.

"He has shown his quality as a player and he has been possibly one of the best players in this World Cup," he added.

Media have speculated that Barcelona could lock in a high sale price for Sanchez, 25, to help finance other signings.
