England international Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has been heavily tipped for a move away from Arsenal, with the player looking for more game-time.
The Ox has refused to sign a new deal at the Emirates as he enters the final year on his current deal. Arsene Wenger, however, is confident the midfielder will stay.
'Yes. 100 per cent, I expect him to stay. No matter the speculation, he will stay', the French manager said when asked if the Gunners would manage to keep Oxlade-Chamberlain.
Premier League clubs such as Liverpool, Chelsea or Manchester City are ready to pounce, and Wenger could risk losing his £25m valuation if the player decides to leave next summer on a free.
