Former Liverpool defender, Jamie Carragher, has confirmed that Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has signed for the club.
Carragher wrote on his Twitter page: “Tried to persuade AOC to join @LFC when he was a kid, obviously Klopp is more persuasive! Interested how he gets him into CM after Sunday!!”
Oxlade-Chamberlain underwent a medical with Liverpool on Wednesday evening, after both clubs agreed a fee of £40million , according to Sky sources.
The 24-year-old is set to join Liverpool on a five-year deal after the two clubs struck a deal.
The player turned down a new improved deal at Arsenal earlier this month which would have seen him earn £180,000 a week. He will earn a minimum of £120,000 a week at Anfield, a figure which could increase with win bonuses and loyalty payments.
The Gunners agreed a deal with Chelsea for Oxlade-Chamberlain earlier this week, but the midfielder rejected the chance to join the Blues in favour of a move to Anfield.
