Sanchez reportedly fit to face Argentina despite ankle complaint
The Arsenal star had been forced off during their defeat at the weekend, but he has travelled to Santiago and could feature on Thursday
Chile may have received a boost ahead of their crunch World Cup qualifying match against Argentina, with Alexis Sanchez reportedly fit to play.
The star striker scored in Arsenal's 3-1 Premier League defeat to West Brom on Saturday but had to be substituted in the second half after finding himself on the wrong end of a heavy James McClean tackle.
Gunners manager Arsene Wenger delivered a grim initial prognosis, claiming the forward's ankle had been left in an "absolutely terrible state".
