I dream of playing for Barcelona and want to become the best player in the world - Udinese's Alexis Sanchez


The Chilean is determined to develop his game and dreams of winning titles with the Catalan giants, who remain in pole position to secure his signature


Udinese attacker Alexis Sanchez has made it clear that he wants to join Barcelona in order to develop into the best player in the world.

The 22-year-old is one of the most sought-after players of the summer transfer window and is widely believed to be on his way to the Catalan giants ahead of the 2011-12 campaign.

Gino Pozzo, the son of Udinese owner Giampaolo Pozzo, recently revealed that Sanchez had no preference between a move to either Barcelona or Manchester City.

However, Sport quotes the Chilean as saying: "I dream of playing for Barcelona, because I have the chance to win a lot of trophies there. My biggest objective is to win a lot of silverware.

"I am still a young player, but I have the ambition to become the best player in the world. I need to be more clinical in front of the goal, but I am very eager to continue developing into a better player. My biggest secret is perhaps my humility."

The forward went on to say that opposition defenders hold no fear for him, adding: "I am not afraid of any defender. When they're trying to hit me, I just tell them to play football or go boxing.

"I don't even know the name of my opponent most of the time. I go out with the goal to beat them and get past them. I don't respond to provocations."

A representative from Udinese claimed last week that Barca were on the verge of concluding a deal for Sanchez, but Premier League side Manchester City have not given up hope of launching a last-ditch attempt to hijack the deal.
