Alexander Mark David Oxlade-Chamberlain (born 15 August 1993) is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Süper Lig club Beşiktaş. He earned 35 caps for the England national team between 2012 and 2019.[2]
After rising to prominence with Southampton during the 2010–11 season aged 17, Oxlade-Chamberlain signed for Arsenal in August 2011. Scoring twice in his first three matches for the club, Oxlade-Chamberlain became the youngest English goalscorer in UEFA Champions League history and also claimed a regular place in the England under-21 team. Over his six seasons at Arsenal, he played 198 games and scored 20 goals, winning the FA Cup three times. He signed for Liverpool in August 2017, winning the 2018–19 Champions League and 2019–20 Premier League.
Oxlade-Chamberlain made his debut for the England national team in May 2012 in a 1–0 win against Norway in a friendly. Following this, he received a surprise call-up to the England squad for UEFA Euro 2012 and became the second youngest player ever to represent England in the European Championships behind Wayne Rooney, later to be overtaken by Jude Bellingham as well. He was also called up for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. He has made 35 appearances for the national team, the latest in 2019, scoring seven goals.[2]
