Chelsea convinced they can prise Oxlade-Chamberlain from Arsenal

Chelsea are convinced they're set to land Arsenal midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

The Sun says are growing increasingly confident of agreeing a £35million deal for Arsenal star Oxlade-Chamberlain.

The England midfielder, 23, has been on the brink of a move all summer long, with Liverpool reportedly also interested.

Recently, Gunners boss Arsene Wenger has been quick to assure fans Alexis Sanchez and Olivier Giroud will not be leaving the club.

However, the Frenchman – who'll be relieved following Arsenal's thrilling late comeback win over Leicester on Friday – is yet to reassure fans over Oxlade-Chamberlain.

The news has given Antonio Conte and Co hope they could make a move for their man as they are desperately lacking first-team depth.
