Oxlade-Chamberlain could end up as a team-mate of Cesc Fabregas at Chelsea this season
Chelsea will now intensify their efforts to lure him as they look to fulfil Antonio Conte's desire to strengthen the squad before the transfer deadline.
Oxlade-Chamberlain has one year left on his deal meaning he can leave for nothing at the end of the season.
Arsenal are keen to keep him beyond his existing deal, but have left themselves exposed with regards to his contract.
It leaves Arsenal facing the dilemma of losing him for nothing or listening to offers.
Ther versatile Oxlade-Chamberlain has excelled in a wing back role of late for Arsenal and would fit in perfectly to Conte's 3-4-3 system.
