Liverpool Set To Make Audacious Bid For Arsenal Star

Liverpool are reportedly preparing an audacious bid for Arsenal star Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in the upcoming transfer window.

With Sadio Mane set to leave for African Cup of Nations duty after Liverpool’s Premier League game with Sunderland on January 2, Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is keen to bolster his squad to keep the title challenge on track and The Telegraph has reported that the Arsenal forward has emerged as a prime target. The report further claimed that the Reds will have to pay between £20 million to £25 million to secure the services of the former Southampton ace.

Arsenal forward targeted by Liverpool in audacious £25m January swoop The England international has reportedly grown frustrated with the lack of playing time at the Emirates despite being in good form. He has scored 6 goals and has registered as many assists this term but is yet to complete 90 minutes this season. Furthermore, his England teammates and Liverpool stars Jordan Henderson and Adam Lallana have reportedly told him the way Klopp works which has impressed him.

However, it will be interesting to see whether the Gunners will be willing to sell a player of Oxlade-Chamberlain’s stature to a title rival.But the 23-year old’s current contract at the Emirates expires in 2018 and with the Gunners yet to hand him a new deal, the Reds might test the North London outfit’s resolve in January. Furthermore, the Gunners are linked with Borussia Dortmund star Marco Reus as a replacement for contract rebel Alexis Sanchez and if they might get tempted to sell Oxlade-Chamberlain if they get a good amount.

Meanwhile, the Reds are also linked with Spartak Moscow’s Dutch winger Quincy Promes. The Reds are currently second in the table and would be looking to bolster their squad in January to continue one of their most promising title challenges in recent years.
