Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain could have become a member of London's "Chelsea" team. It is announced that London's "Arsenal" accepted a £40 million offer for the footballer, but the British player himself did not want to move to the blue side.
The midfielder said he wants to play in the ranks of "Liverpool" because he does not want to be a backup. This is the position that "Chelsea" and "Arsenal" coaches see him in.
However, everything will not be so simple in the English story. "Liverpool" made a £30 million offer, but it was rejected.
Also, A. Oxlade-Chamberlain is just a backup option for "Liverpool." It is announced that all efforts are focused on trying to acquire "Monaco" footballer Thomas Lemar, and only if the negotiations fail will they seriously consider trying to attract the "Arsenal" midfielder.
Liverpool's team correspondent Melissa Reddy shared the news on her Twitter account that Liverpool agreed with Arsenal on a £35 million buyout fee. Liverpool's management only needs to reach an agreement with the player himself regarding the contract.
