Chile star Alexis Sanchez may want to put more than just a bottle of bubbly on ice.
The Arsenal attacker took to Twitter on Monday to update his fans on the swollen ankle that forced him off during Sunday's second consecutive Copa America win over Argentina, and from the looks of it, the tournament's Golden Ball winner may fancy a few days off.

Sanchez, 27, was taken off in extra-time after suffering the injury, and substitute Francisco Silva rewarded manager Juan Antonio Pizzi's decision by scoring the decisive penalty at MetLife Stadium as La Roja won its second Copa America on the trot.
