Arsenal superstar Alexis Sanchez has gone on to explain how learning has helped him develop as a person.

Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez is sort of a person who always strives for improvement and it is clear to see from the wonderful effort he puts on the pitch every single game that the Chilean attacker’s will to win is unbounded.

Such a fine mentality is what has made Alexis the brilliant player he is today and despite being 27; it would not be a surprise if the former Barcelona man further develops as a player in the coming years.

While Sanchez’s hard work on the pitch as well as on the training ground is there for everyone to see, the attacker has been working towards improving other aspects of his personality outside of football as well and the Arsenal man has gone on to reveal that he is constantly striving to improve his English.

Sanchez explained that earning proficiency in the English language has developed him as a person and has also helped him communicate better with his teammates as well as manager Arsene Wenger.

Alexis told the Arsenal Player, “At the beginning I took lessons for two hours a day. Then I had to make use of what I learnt so I could communicate with my team-mates and the manager. I truly like the English language. Learning it helps me grow as an individual.

Sanchez speaks about his love for the English language

“My team-mates in general have helped me a lot. I have also learnt English in some other contexts, such as having a stroll in the street. People approach me, talk to me in English... my listening and my conversational English are improving a lot thanks to people.

“A few days ago I did a live interview in English for the first time in my life. I found it a bit difficult, but at the same time I felt comfortable too. I must keep on learning the language so I can develop as a person.”

Sanchez is a player whom any fan in the world would want in their respective teams and Arsenal most certainly are fortunate to be able to call on the services of a player who truly inspires everyone around him with his work ethic.
