TalkSPORT claim Manchester United are considering a shock move to sign Liverpool midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain – with West Ham and Aston Villa also interested. Oxlade-Chamberlain will be allowed to leave Anfield.
Oxlade-Chamberlain, 28, is about to enter the final year of his contract at Liverpool. He has only managed to play 133 times in the five years he has spent at Anfield, averaging around 25 appearances a season in all competitions.

Reports emerged earlier this summer that Aston Villa and West Ham were considering moves, with Liverpool willing to say goodbye to the England star for just £10million. Now, Manchester United are mulling over a move.
The report claims that Erik Ten Hag wants to bring in some midfielders, with Paul Pogba, Juan Mata and Nemanja Matic set to leave the club for nothing. United are ready to move if Liverpool sell him for just £10million.

Manchester United considering shock Oxlade-Chamberlain move
Which club would be the most-realistic move for the Liverpool midfielder? Oxlade-Chamberlain has always been a loyal part of Liverpool’s side. It would be shocking for more than one reason if he went to Old Trafford.
A player that has played for two of United’s biggest rivals in Arsenal and Liverpool. Surely he would not consider a move. Liverpool would hardly sell to one of their largest enemies, either.
United will also look at Oxlade-Chamberlain and be concerned by his injury record, and that there is a growing consensus he is past it. A Villa, or a West Ham, are better suited to Oxlade-Chamberlain at this time.
