Oxlade-Chamberlain left Liverpool last summer as he joined Besiktas as a free agent, however, the 30-year-old failed to shine for the Turkish side as they finished sixth in the Super Lig last season. Besiktas have now brought in former Rangers manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst and the Dutchman is looking to overhaul the squad.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
As per The Sun, Championship side Sheffield United are looking to make additions to their squad this summer and are targeting Crystal Palace forward Jesurun Rak-Sakyi on loan. However, if the Blades fail to sign him they could go for the former Liverpool and Arsenal midfielder as they want to incorporate experience into their squad.
