Chelsea set to sign Oxlade-Chamberlain
WITH just three days to go until the closure of the summer transfer window, Chelsea and Liverpool have been flexing their financial muscles before the final bell tolls.
Premier League champions Chelsea were yesterday reported to have agreed a transfer fee for Arsenal's Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, who has been unable to agree a new contract at the Emirates.
Meanwhile, Liverpool have agreed a club- record fee to take Red Bull Leipzig midfielder Naby Keita, but the Guinea international won't be joining the Anfield outfit until July.
While the Reds brace themselves for more interest from Barcelona in their Brazilian star Philippe Coutinho, the Spanish giants completed the £135.5m capture of Dortmund's Ousmane Dembele.
He is 10-11 to score more than 12 La Liga goals for Barca this season with bet365, who offer 14-1 that the 20-year-old France striker nets more than 20.
Tottenham defender Kevin Wimmer was set to complete a move to Stoke.
