Stoke open talks with Arsenal midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain over record deal

Published on: 25 July 2017

Stoke City have opened talks with Arsenal midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

The Sun says Oxlade-Chamberlain, who has only a year left on his current Emirates deal, has attracted interest from the likes of Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City.

But Stoke are in discussions with the player's agent over a potential club-record £25million move.

The promise of first-team football could sway the Ox, 23, towards the Potters and away from one of the big four, with a place at next year's World Cup at stake.

Any potential permanent deal would almost certainly break the transfer record set by Gianelli Imbula's £17m move from Porto in January 2016, with Arsenal reportedly demanding around £20-£25m for Oxlade-Chamberlain.
