Liverpool have agreed a £40m deal to sign Arsenal and England midfielder Alex
Oxlade-Chamberlain.

The 24-year-old, who rejected a move to Chelsea on Tuesday after a fee had
been agreed, will join Liverpool on a five-year contract worth £120,00 a week.
Oxlade-Chamberlain, who is in the final year of his Arsenal contract, rejected a
new deal worth up to £180,000 a week to stay at the Emirates.
He has started each of Arsenal's four games so far this season.

The midfielder is expected to have a medical before flying to Malta with England
on Thursday, before the summer transfer window closes at 23:00 BST.
Oxlade-Chamberlain has made 198 appearances for Arsenal since joining them
from Southampton in August 2011, scoring 20 goals.

The fee would have been Liverpool's club record deal, but the Reds have agreed
to sign RB Leipzig's Naby Keita next summer for £48m.

So far this summer, Liverpool have signed winger Mohamed Salah from Roma
for £34m, full-back Andrew Robertson from Hull for £8m and striker Dominic
Solanke after his contract at Chelsea expired.

Liverpool have also been pursuing Monaco's £75m-rated winger Thomas Lemar
and Southampton centre-back Virgil van Dijk, while the Reds' Brazil forward
Philippe Coutinho remains Barcelona's number one transfer target.
Belgium striker Divock Origi could leave Anfield and join Bundesliga side
Wolfsburg on loan before the transfer window closes on Thursday, says BBC
Sport's chief football writer Phil McNulty.

The 22-year-old is highly rated by Reds manager Jurgen Klopp but the
imminent arrival of Oxlade-Chamberlain from Arsenal means his chances in
attack are likely to be restricted this season.

Origi wants regular football throughout Belgium's build-up to next summer's
World Cup and Liverpool will also be eager to see the talented young forward
continue his progress, so it is expected he will leave Anfield before the deadline
