Liverpool midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is being linked with a summer move to Borussia Dortmund.
The England international is becoming increasingly unhappy about his lack of first-team involvement at Anfield, and has rarely featured since the turn of the year.
A £35 million pound signing from Arsenal in 2017, the England international’s progress on Merseyside has been impeded by a series of injuries, with the knee problem he picked up in a Champions League semi-final ruling him out for almost a year.
Another injury at the start of this campaign saw him miss the opening months of the season, and he has since fallen down the pecking order.
He is under contract until 2024, but a bod of £20 million may be enough to persuade Liverpool top let him go, so they can reinvest the money in their squad.
The “Ox” has played 35 times for England, but is not in contention for this summer’s Euros.

He loves all sports but football is his abiding passion, and he still has dreams every now and then about scoring the winning goal in a Wembley Cup Final, even though his playing days are long gone. He follows most major leagues, across Europe at least, and has a favoured team in each. When he’s not watching, listening, reading or downloading podcasts about football, he spend his time worrying about his beloved Arsenal.
