Hehehe.........Chelsea
are closing in on the signing of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain after agreeing
a fee in the region of £35 million with Arsenal for the England
international.
Chelsea FC are believed to have agreed a fee with Arsenal to bring
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain who joined Arsenal in 2011 and rejected a
contract offer from the Gunners last week, to Stamford Bridge.
Liverpool and Chelsea had been showing substantial interest in the
24-year-old but Sky Sports say it is the Premier League champions who
are set to land their man.
It is claimed a fee of around £35million has been agreed between
the London rivals and a medical will take place in the next few days.
Oxlade-Chamberlain, who started for Arsenal in Sunday’s 4-0 defeat
at Anfield, is currently with the England squad at St George’s Park. And
it is believed large parts of his medical could take place at England’s
training centre, with Chelsea keen to make progress on the deal ahead
of Thursday’s deadline.
Speaking to the media on Sunday, Conte confirmed the club were working ‘very hard’ on incoming transfers. "There are four days to go in the transfer market," Conte said.
"I think the club is working very hard to try to improve our
squad. Don’t forget that in September we have to play seven games and I
need to rotate my players because it’s very difficult to play seven
games in a month with the same players."
