Alexis Sanchez warns Tottenham
The Chile international joined Marseille this year after his contract with Inter Milan was terminated, according to ESPN.
Sanchez has directed a dig at Tottenham before their massive showdown in the Champions League, according to Football London.
"I have great affection for Arsenal from my time there. Beating Spurs every time was a great joy; it was very special and they are days I will always cherish."
The 33-year-old praised his former coach and is excited to play against him.
"He was a very demanding coach. If you don’t give 100% on pitch, then you are dropped from the next game, but it will be great to play against him tomorrow."
Tottenham could likely fail to advance to the last 16 if they lose in Marseille - and if Sporting CP and Eintracht Frankfurt draw in the other Group D game. Therefore, Conte's men need at least a draw to advance, according to the Evening Standard.
