Liverpool target Oxlade-Chamberlain turns down new deal

Arsenal will decide in the next 24 hours whether reported Liverpool target Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain can leave the club after he rejected a fresh contract offer.

The Gunners held a final round of talks with Oxlade-Chamberlain on Thursday and tabled a £180,000-a-week deal, which the player turned down.

According to Sky Sports, Arsene Wenger will now decide whether to sell him or force him to see out the final year of his contract.

The Englishman wants out, and the latest development will put prospective suitors Liverpool and Chelsea on red alert.

They will likely have to stoke up an offer in excess of £30million to prise the 24-year old away from The Emirates.

Oxlade-Chamberlain is dissatisfied with his current wing-back role, so the Reds would need to guarantee him a central position.

Klopp is said to be an admirer of the former Southampton man and is in the market for a midfielder after missing out on Naby Keita.
