Manchester United's reported interest in Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is one of the more surprising transfer rumours to have emerged so far this summer.
Various reports have suggested United are interested in signing the Liverpool midfielder as Erik ten Hag looks to add to his midfield options. The Dutchman is certainly in need of some added quality in the centre of the park, particularly following the departures of Paul Pogba, Nemanja Matic and Juan Mata.
The prospect of Oxlade-Chamberlain making the move to Old Trafford is perhaps a long shot. Direct deals between United and Liverpool so rarely happen, especially since Sir Alex Ferguson’s reign, with the legendary manager famously blocking a move for Gabriel Heinze to Anfield in 2007.
