Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain transfer news: Newcastle, Aston Villa or Brighton? Betfair reveal favourites for Ox’s signature
ALEX OXLADE-CHAMBERLAIN will leave Liverpool when his contract expires in June.
But where is the former England international heading next? Bookmakers Betfair have revealed his potential destinations, and who is most likely to secure his signature this summer.
Newcastle are the leading contenders at 3/1, with Aston Villa and Brighton following at 4/1 and 5/1 respectively.
A move to Serie A isn't out of the question with FOUR Italian sides considered genuine options for the Ox.
Champions League finalists Inter Milan are offered at 8/1 with arch-rivals AC Milan just behind at 10/1, ahead of Juventus (12/1) and champions Napoli (16/1).
Former clubs Arsenal and Southampton are distant outsiders of the chasing pack at 33/1 and 40/1.

Betfair odds
- Newcastle - 3/1
- Aston Villa - 4/1
- Brighton - 5/1
- Inter Milan - 8/1
- AC Milan - 10/1
- Juventus - 12/1
- Napoli - 16/1
- Arsenal - 33/1
- Southampton - 40/1
Although an emotional return to Saints would see Oxlade-Chamberlain drop into the Championship.
The 29-year-old spent six seasons at Anfield having joined from Arsenal for a sizeable £35million in 2017.
His injury-plagued campaigns have limited him to 146 appearances in all competitions, scoring 18 goals and providing 15 assists.
Again, he's struggled for minutes this season, making just 13 appearances, the last of which was against Real Madrid in Liverpool's Champions League last-16 exit.
