Liverpool will not let unwanted star leave the club in January

Liverpool are planning to offload Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain next summer upon the expiration of his contract as it is very unlikely that they offer the midfielder a new deal. 

The 29-year-old looked like he was going to be an incredible signing for the Reds before suffering a knee injury against Roma during the 2018 Champions League semi-final.

However, that injury derailed his progress as he never fully recovered and has been plagued by other setbacks ever since.

That has seen Oxlade-Chamberlain slip down the pecking order in Jurgen Klopp’s team and the Liverpool boss omitted the midfielder from his Champions League squad for the group stages this season.

Oxlade-Chamberlain never recovered from the knee injury suffered against Roma during the 2018 Champions League semi-final.

According to Football Insider, Liverpool and Klopp do not see Oxlade-Chamberlain as part of their first-team plans beyond this season and will not offer him a new deal before next summer.

Nevertheless, the Merseyside club are unlikely to let the midfielder leave on a cut-price January deal and will retain him for the whole season.

Oxlade-Chamberlain, therefore, is set to run his deal down at Liverpool which will benefit his next move as more clubs will be interested if the 29-year-old is free.
