That’s according to Sky Sports transfer guru Kaveh Solhekol who says the incoming Arsenal ace is a huge admirer of the veteran star.
Solhekol tweeted: “Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain was a Liverpool fan when he was a kid.
“Liverpool see him as long-term replacement for James Milner.”
In a previous tweet Solhekol explained Oxlade-Chamberlain has turned down a more lucrative contract offer from the Gunners.
He said: “Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will be paid about £125,000 a week by Liverpool.
“Turned down new Arsenal contract worth up to £180,000 a week.”
The England international is expected to pen a six-year deal at the Anfield heavyweights.
Arsenal will receive £35m for Oxlade-Chamberlain which could rise to £40m with add-ons.
Liverpool are also chasing Monaco ace Thomas Lemar.
Yesterday it was claimed that Jurgen Klopp’s side had offered £66m plus add-ons for his signature.
Liverpool’s first bid has been knocked back but Starsport understand they are ready to up their offer to £75m.
Lemar is one of the hottest properties in world football and has also been heavily linked to Arsenal this summer.
