Sky Sports Journalist Keveh Solhekol has claimed that Arsenal will soon inform Chelsea and Liverpool target Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain whether he can leave the club.
Solhekol wrote on Twitter, “Arsenal to tell Oxlade-Chamberlain in next 24 hours if he can leave. Wants to go. Turned down £180k-a-week deal. Chelsea, Liverpool want him.”
The 24-year-old Oxlade-Chamberlain has refused to sign a new contract at the Emirates which has sparked rumors that he could be on his way out of the club.
Arsene Wenger, who is a fan of Oxlade-Chamberlain, hopes to tie down the player to a new deal. However considering that the England international has delayed signing a contract for so long, it is hard to see him remaining at the Emirates.
Oxlade-Chamberlain’s desire to leave is understandable, considering that there are clubs interested in him who arguably have better chances of winning major silverware that are interested.
