I dont even think he's doing that TBF. He obviously wants, and is willing to stay, but wants what he's worth or at least very close.
The money isn't the issue it's the release clause he wants in his contract.

Do we know what the detail of the release clause is? Just related to a mega club coming in? Or activates if we don't qualify for the CL?
Apparently wants a £25m release clause so that if a clubs bids for that we'd have to accept it, not sure why he would want that but I've always had this nagging feeling that he wants to return to Ajax in his latter years and a relatively low fee like that would be affordable for them.
I've got this nagging feeling that he knows he could earn three times more somewhere else, he isn't stupid. It's not really something very surprising, people thinking about money.

Deffo wouldn't go for that, unless the clause only kicks in in say four years time, even then £25m sounds a little cheap!
Actually, I'd take a £25m release clause in 4 years time. We'd get the remaining 'best years' out of him and we'd have £25m to spend on the next up and coming 19 year old CB, when the time came.
Also, by then Sanchez would be 25 years old and coming into his prime!
That said, it'd have to be a 6 or 7 year contract so I very much doubt this would happen
I too thought it was an answer to a Goat cryptic along with Dier. Elsewhere it was also suggested it'll be sorted in September. Guess we have 25 days left.
"He was talking with me in my office this morning and he’s so happy, he wants to make it clear he is fully committed with the club.
"He’s happy with his contract, two years plus one. It’s not an issue
"I recognise some rumours in the last few days. But he is so relaxed, so calm.
"His idea is to try to play here -- he’s happy here, there’s no reason to move."
Are you watching the correct team?Just sell him, he's overrated anyway.
