Alexis Sanchez and Arsene Wenger shake hands at Arsenal training on Monday

Alexis Sanchez and Arsene Wenger shook hands at training as Arsenal prepared for their Champions League clash with Bayern Munich.

Sanchez looked in high spirits at the Gunners' London Colney training base on Monday, despite widespread reports suggesting a bust-up had occurred between the forward and his team-mates prior to Saturday's 3-1 defeat at Liverpool.

The Chile international is alleged to have walked out of training mid-session last week before being involved in an angry confrontation with his team-mates. Arsenal are yet to comment on this matter.

Sanchez was left out of the starting line-up for the match at Anfield, but came on at half-time and provided an assist for Danny Welbeck.

However, the 28-year-old appears to have put his exclusion from the starting XI behind him and shook hands with Wenger at the beginning of the training session.
