Arsenal's Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has turned down a move to Chelsea after the Premier League clubs agreed a £40m fee.
Oxlade-Chamberlain believes the Blues planned to use him at wing-back, and his primary reason for wanting to leave Arsenal is to play in central midfield. The 24-year-old England international wants to move to Liverpool and the Anfield club are interested in a deal.
A bid is expected before Thursday's transfer deadline, although it will be short of the £40m Chelsea offered.
