Arsenal’s Oxlade-Chamberlain could move to Liverpool - but not for £35m
The 23-year-old’s versatility makes him an attractive
option for the Reds as a squad player, but they would be reluctant to
pay over £20m
Who Arsenal should sell this summer
The same word can be applied to the reported £35 million valuation of the Arsenal midfielder, who will enter the final 12 months of his contract this summer.
What exactly is the situation with the 23-year-old? Could he be lining up under the German next season, and at what cost?
IS HE REALLY OF INTEREST TO LIVERPOOL?
Oxlade-Chamberlain is on a long list of options for the Merseysiders as they seek to fortify their first XI, as well as enhance their quality in squad depth ahead of the new campaign. He would fall into the latter category, with his ability to play across midfield and as a wide forward boxing off increased competition in several positions.
Who Liverpool should sell this summer
The England international’s speed, strength in take-ons, intelligent movement, incisive passing and willingness to contribute defensively makes him a good fit for Liverpool.
He has six goals and as many assists in all competitions this season - one less than Adam Lallana in both - despite not being a regular starter.
Exclusive: Liverpool after dynamic Keita
At 23, with close to 200 appearances for Arsenal in all competitions, a high ceiling and the right stylistic profile, Oxlade-Chamberlain is an attractive possibility for the Reds.
His recruitment would, however, be a bonus rather than a priority with the club on an ambitious drive for their primary targets.
