# Kevin Campbell urges West Ham to land ‘huge’ Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain deal

Former Premier League striker Kevin Campbell has urged [West Ham](https://readwestham.com/2021/08/10/virals-match-officials-confirmed-for-trip-to-newcastle-united/) to sign Liverpool attacking midfielder [Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain](https://readwestham.com/2021/07/26/virals-west-ham-want-to-sign-alex-oxlade-chamberlain-on-loan/) this summer.

This comes after the Hammers were [dealt a blow](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11685/12371069/jesse-lingard-west-ham-think-they-have-just-10-per-cent-chance-of-signing-manchester-united-forward) to their hopes of signing Manchester United ace Jesse Lingard.

Instead, reliable club insider ExWHUemployee, told [The West Ham Way](https://www.patreon.com/posts/transfer-update-54058778?utm_medium=post_notification_email&utm_source=post_link&utm_campaign=patron_engagement&token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJyZWRpc19rZXkiOiJpbnN0YW50LWFjY2VzczpiNGU3MTg5OC04MjgyLTQ2NGItODQ2ZS1lMzNmNjcyZDk5ZTIifQ.R8p-BJpliNn15MF4LLqvSUTeSDcgz1ZNEuu5rt_aod8) podcast (July 24), that the Irons could make a move to sign Oxlade-Chamberlain on loan.

Speaking to [Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/west-ham-told-to-complete-oxlade-chamberlain-signing-after-huge-sky-update-pundit/), Campbell called for West Ham to make an attempt to sign the 27-year-old.

> He’s quick and direct. He’s the type of player that would definitely suit West Ham. I’m not saying he’s a goalscorer in the same vein as Jesse Lingard but his game is speed. That’s huge in his game and he’s not playing at Liverpool. When you don’t play, there is always that risk you get sold or are forced to move on. He’d be a huge signing for West Ham.

The report claims Liverpool would expect to receive a fee of around £22million for the [35-cap](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/alex-oxlade-chamberlain/nationalmannschaft/spieler/143424/verein_id/3299) England man.

Last season the versatile attacker made just [17 appearances](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/alex-oxlade-chamberlain/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/143424) across all competitions having missed the early weeks of the campaign.

### READ WEST HAM VERDICT

While a move for Oxlade-Chamberlain would certainly add to the options available to Moyes, recent [pre-season outings](https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/first-team/438177-bobby-be-careful-ox-on-playing-no-9-pre-season-and-worldies-in-training) may suggest prizing the Englishman away from Merseyside is difficult.

The £16.2million valued ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/alex-oxlade-chamberlain/marktwertverlauf/spieler/143424)), the ex-Arsenal star has played an integral part in the preparations and Jurgen Klopp has [alluded](https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/first-team/440345-jurgen-klopp-reaction-anfield-friendly-osasuna) to a role at Anfield for the ‘whole season’ fitness permitting.

Ultimately [additional options are required](https://www.whufc.com/teams/first-team/squad) at the London Stadium, but it would seem ‘the Ox’ could be out of reach.
