Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is ready to commit himself to Arsenal for the most important time of his career.

Liverpool have been chasing the Arsenal midfielder and are desperate to try to lure him to Anfield this summer.

But Arsenal have made it clear they are determined to keep him and have begun talks over a new deal worth in excess of £100,000-a-week.

Arsenal are confident that 23-year-old Oxlade-Chamberlain will snub the chance to move north and join Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool to stay at the Emirates.

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger has already moved to try to tie up a deal within the next few weeks.

Wenger picked Oxlade-Chamberlain for the FA Cup final and that was seen as a clear sign of his determination to keep him at Arsenal.

Oxlade-Chamberlain has enjoyed an outstanding season at the Emirates, pushing on in the past few months with strong performances in central midfield and at wing back.

That also earned him a recall to Gareth Southgate’s England squad and Arsenal are confident that will show to Oxlade-Chamberlain that he is in the right place.

Oxlade-Chamberlain has enjoyed a strong connection with the Arsenal fans and he has become a big hero to them ever since joining from Southampton in 2011.

This next deal will be a huge contract in his career terms as he approaches his peak and sees the next few seasons as his big chance to win silverware and enjoy success for club and country.
