Liverpool are rivalling Chelsea for the signing of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
The Anfield club have made a serious move for the Arsenal star ahead of transfer deadline day on Thursday.
The 24-year-old is set to reject a £180,000-per-week deal at Arsenal and it remains to be seen whether Wenger will select Oxlade-Chamberlain, who is a regular in the starting XI, for Sunday's clash against Liverpool.

The former Southampton man had previously shown a reluctance to sign a new deal.
The likely decision not to re-sign is not about the money but his desire to further his career as he looks to become an England regular.
The fact he is ready to turn down Arsenal's lucrative offer underlines his stance.
