West Ham United are one of the teams trying to tempt Arsenal star Alex-Oxlade Chamberlain to sign for them this summer, according to The Mirror.

The England international is an impressive performer but has found a starting berth in Arsene Wenger’s team hard to come by this season.

As such, suggestions have arisen that the versatile midfielder could leave the Emirates Stadium ahead of next season in a bid to play more regularly.

The report states that former club Southampton want to land Oxlade-Chamberlain, but that Hammers boss Slaven Bilic is keeping a close eye on the situation.

The Croat is said to be a big admirer of the Arsenal star but West Ham look set to face extreme competition for the Englishman’s signature.

Oxlade-Chamberlain’s acquisition would be an exciting new face as the London club prepare to move into the Olympic Stadium this summer and push for a top-four berth again next season.
