Reigning champions Chelsea are closing in on a deal for Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain after the midfielder rejected a new £180,000-a-week contract at Arsenal, according to the Sun.



Considering he's only ever been a squad player at the Emirates Stadium, starting just 16 Premier League matches last season, it perhaps seems strange that the Gunners are putting up such a fight to keep the 24-year-old. But the report claims that the club's tactics have failed, with Oxlade-Chamberlain telling Arsene Wenger and chief executive Ivan Gazidis that he wants to leave.

Chelsea are prepared to pay £35 million for the England international who, like Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil, is in the final year of his contract.

The Blues have also lined up bids for Ross Barkley and Danny Drinkwater, according to several reports in Britain, as Antonio Conte looks to build a new English core at Stamford Bridge.

The Belgian’s return to Stamford Bridge has not gone to plan, despite the 29-year-old scoring a respectable eight goals in 26 Premier League games.Though, "respectable" is not what Chelsea paid a reported £97.5 million for, not that it is exclusively the striker’s fault.Lukaku simply hasn’t fitted into Thomas Tuchel’s system, and he hasn’t always been trusted to start as a result.Whichever way you see it, Lukaku’s return to West London has not gone to plan, and it s...
