MANCHESTER -- Claudio Bravo has said Chile colleague Alexis Sanchez "went from happiness to bitterness" when his deadline day move from Arsenal to Manchester City collapsed.

Bravo and Sanchez had been preparing for a World Cup qualifier against Paraguay in Santiago when Arsenal accepted a £60 million City offer for the forward.

But the deal fell through when the Gunners failed to find a replacement, although Bravo stressed that he hoped Sanchez would join him at the Etihad Stadium in the future.

"He went from happiness to bitterness in a few hours, although it's all in the past now," the goalkeeper told reporters after City's 5-0 win over Liverpool on Saturday.
