Emi Martinez says that Alexis Sanchez loves dogs so much that he keeps asking when his dogs, Atom and Humber, will be allowed breed with the Argentine keeper’s.

Sanchez clearly wants more puppies in his life, which is a completely normal thing of course, and he’s got his eye on Martinez’s female labrador as a possible mate for one of his famous chaps.

Speaking to the Arsenal programme, the 24 year old revealed that Alexis is always question about when they might organise some sweet, sweet loving.

“His labradors are both male, and mine is a female,” he said. “So he’s always asking when they’re going to breed because he wants more dogs.

“I tell him that mine is too young and to give her another year!”

More dogs, we approve 100%. And the more dogs he has, the more difficult it is for him to move house or to another country so he might as well sign a new deal because it’s just less hassle.

Please deliver all dogs to Alexis Sanchez c/o Arsenal Football Club, London.
