According to The Metro, Arsenal are ready to sell Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain to Liverpool in a £25 million deal. The 23 year old versatile midfielder has been attracting attention from many Premier League clubs after an impressive season with Arsenal. Surprisingly, Arsenal seem to be ready to let go of him to a Premier League rival. Wenger has invested so much time and money in developing Chamberlain from a raw but talented youngster to a Premier League star but surprisingly there seems to be no stopping his transfer from Arsenal.
Chamberlain would be a great fit at Liverpool where Klopp has assembled a similar set of players who are pacy, energetic and will give it all on the pitch during the 90 minutes. With the futures of both Sanchez and Ozil in the balance, the start to the summer transfer window has not been auspicious for Arsenal so far. They need to sign Sanchez and Ozil to new contracts as well as strenghten some key positions on the pitch.
Without Champions League football, it will be a difficult task for Wenger but if reports are to be believed Arsenal are among the frontrunners for Kylian Mbappe should he leave Monaco. This show how respected and valued Arsene Wenger still is around Europe. Young players tend to trust the French manager with their careers. Signing Mbappe will be a huge statement from both Arsenal and Arsene Wenger. Although, it is clear that even if Mbappe signs, he will be looking to move to a bigger club within a few years, signing him will definitely be a massive boost to the club and the manager.
