The Liverpool man, who left Arsenal in August, is now worth some £51.8 million, apparently.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain of Arsenal in action during the Premier League match between Arsenal and Leicester City at Emirates Stadium on August 11, 2017 in London, England.

According to a study from CIES Football Observatory, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is worth around £51.8 million.

The 24-year-old joined Liverpool from Arsenal in a £35 million deal in August.

At the time it was considered a bargain for the Gunners based on the fact that the England international only managed nine goals in 131 Premier League games.

But the way in which he has started life at Liverpool has prompted suggestions that the Reds paid well over the odds to bring him to Anfield.

Oxlade-Chamberlain is yet to score a goal or set one up in any of his six games under Jurgen Klopp – only one was a start – and a poor performance in their League Cup defeat at Leicester City resulted in a barrage of mockery on social media.

However, a study conducted by the CIES Football Observatory has suggested that the former Southampton is worth £51.8 million – £16 million more than Liverpool paid to sign him from the North Londoners.

The study also indicates that he was worth only £23.8 million on July 1.

It comes on the back of a record-breaking transfer window in which Neymar, Kylian Mbappe, Ousmane Dembele and Romelu Lukaku secured mega-money moves.
