Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has seen his contract at Besikas ripped up, according to reports in Turkey.

The former Liverpool midfielder joined the Istanbul club in 2023, ending his six-year stint at Anfield.

But, it now seems like he has been deemed surplus to requirements.

As per Turkish outlet, Yeni Safak, Besiktas has paid Oxlade-Chamberlain a €1.4million ($1.6M/$1.2M) fee to terminate his contract with the club

Having tended to operate as an attacking midfielder during his career in the Premier League, Oxlade-Chamberlain has become a more versatile player in Turkey, often operating in a holding role or box-to-box position

He even played at right-back in a defeat to Basaksehir in April.

Given he would essentially be a free agent, and would bring a wealth of experience and talent, a move to a low-level Premier League club seems like an ideal fit.

Leeds, in particular, would offer an intriguing opportunity for Oxlade-Chamberlain as the newly promoted club looks to build a squad capable of staving off relegation.



The midfielder won the Champions League in 2019

Oxlade-Chamberlain has every major honor in England, including the Premier League and Champions League during his time at Liverpool.

The midfielder also won the Carabao Cup and Club World Cup under Jurgen Klopp, and in 2022 added another FA Cup winners’ medal to his hoard of three from Arsenal.
