Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain wants to leave Arsenal this summer

But Arsenal will not countenance selling him for at least £35m according to Sky Sports reporter Kaveh Solhekol.

Chelsea and Liverpool want to sign the winger and are preparing bids before deadline day.

And the England winger is keen to move if someone comes up with the money.

“Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain played at Anfield yesterday but he still wants to leave,” Solhekol said on Sky Sports.

We’re told it would take a bid of at least £35m for Arsenal to even think about letting him go

Kaveh Solhekol on Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain

“He has just a year left on his contract and Chelsea and Liverpool both want to sign him this week.

“We’re told it would take a bid of at least £35m for Arsenal to even think about letting him go.”

Oxlade-Chamberlain was offered a new deal last week but turned it down.

The 24-year-old has started all three games in the Premier League this season, playing at wing back in Arsene Wenger’s new system.

Oxlade-Chamberlain shares his thoughts on Sanchez and Ozil

But yesterday’s 4-0 defeat at Liverpool won’t have helped Arsenal’s cause with Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil also unsure of their futures.

Sanchez is desperate to leave to play Champions League football again and Man City are lining up a bid this week.

It was reported this morning that City are ready to pay £70m plus Jason Denayer for Sanchez.
