Sanchez scored a wonderful 30-yard goal in Arsenal's 4-0 win in the FA Cup final but now will be a key part of Chile's team in a tournament which runs from June 11 to July 4.
Wenger plans to give him four weeks of holiday meaning that he may not return to training until after the Community Shield on August 2 and would be unlikely to play until late August or early September
'I would prefer him to have a good holiday because we played 56 games,' said Wenger. 'And now it's not ideal that he goes to Copa America. It finishes in July and I will give him four-week holiday.'
Wenger also revealed that Arsenal's players had organised the post Cup final celebrations – but that he intended to join in late into the night.
Wenger said: 'The players have organised it all. I don't know where we go but I will follow. I have organised the whole year tonight I just want to follow.'
