Liverpool news: Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain may be sold after footage emerges - Agbonlahor
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain does not have a long-term future at Liverpool, according to Gabby Agbonlahor.
Speaking exclusively to Football Insider, the ex-Aston Villa and England attacker claimed Jurgen Klopp will want to upgrade his midfield options in the summer.
Oxlade-Chamberlain, 28, was handed a rare start in Liverpool's 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup quarter-final on Sunday (20 March).
However, he was hooked just after the hour mark as Klopp made four changes to look for a winner.
The former England international appeared to bemoan his lack of game time when he was substituted.
Asked whether Oxlade-Chamberlain will be at Anfield next season after seeing his reaction, Agbonlahor told Football Insider correspondent Connor Whitley: "I don't think so, to be honest.
"I feel that I look at Liverpool, I look at Man City and I see how Man City have improved their team. They have got the likes of Gundogan and when he plays he's world-class but when he's not playing Kevin De Bruyne, Phil Foden or Bernardo Silva are playing at a world-class level.
"When you see Liverpool rotate their team, the likes of Keita don't always perform. Oxlade-Chamberlain does not look like he is at the level of Henderson, Fabinho and Thiago.
"In big games, it will be hard for Liverpool if they don't have their first-choice midfield. Their second-choice midfielders aren't up to the Liverpool need to be to stay at the level of Man City.
"Jurgen Klopp will be looking at improving that midfield. I don't think his reaction makes that much difference, although Klopp may be thinking, do that again and you're getting sold."
Oxlade-Chamberlain has played 29 times across all competitions this season but only 17 of those have been starts.
He will enter the final year of his Anfield contract next season.
