DONE DEAL: Fulham beat Southampton and Sheffield United to sign Besiktas star midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
According to reports in Turkish media, Southampton and Fulham have entered the competition to recruit Besiktas offensive midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
According to recent reports, the former Liverpool star wants to return to England, prompting speculation that Sheffield United are interested in signing him.
Sabah reported today on the latest developments about Oxlade-Chamberlain’s future at Besiktas, stating that Southampton, Fulham, and Sheffield United are all interested in the 30-year-old.
As previously reported in Turkish media and reiterated by Sabah, Besiktas plans to move the midfielder this summer in order to reduce his wage bill.
He arrived in Istanbul on a free transfer last summer when his contract with Liverpool expired, but he failed to make an impact.
The competition may be a setback for Sheffield United’s pursuit of Oxlade-Chamberlain, as both Southampton and Fulham may offer him an instant return to the Premier League. According to recent sources, the Blades are in a strong position to sign him.
Last season, Oxlade-Chamberlain appeared in 30 Super Lig games and scored four goals. His contract with the club runs until June 2026.
