Arsenal’s new Chilean winger has impressed since moving to the Emirates. He has been acting more like a captain than most of the players who have the honor of representing the Gunners. Sanchez is determined, dedicated and plays like his life depends on it. He kept his playing style from the days when he really played for his life and for his family’s life as well. According to Metro, the £30million man started from below the bottom. In a recent interview, Sanchez told the press that he used to do back-flips and wash cars in order to save money for his family. Poverty in Chile is very hard to overcome. Fortunately, great characters such as Sanchez’s prevail even in the toughest of conditions.

Today, Sanchez is earing £150,000-a-week which is probably more money than he dreamed off while being a kid. Being one of the highest paid players in the Premier League, the 25 year old is also one of the most hard-working people you see on the football pitch. He is an example for many players and for fans as well. He is disciplined and takes great care of himself while off the pitch. He is obviously thankful for the fact that he is now able to support all those he loves by doing what he loves.

Sanchez still has a long career in front of him. If he stays away from injury, he will definitely become an even better paid player. Even so, the Chilean seems to always know where he came from and that hard work is what got him into the priveleged places he now occupies.
