James Milner, 37, and Adam Lallana, 35, have both recently made the move from Liverpool to Brighton on free transfers and Oxlade-Chamberlain could well be tempted to do the same.

Albion are assessing their options and could make a move for the 35-cap England international if Moises Caicedo completes his transfer to Chelsea this summer.

The Seagulls also lost their star midfielder Alexis Mac Allister to Liverpool earlier this transfer window for an initial fee of £35m. The Reds continue to overhaul their midfield as Jordan Henderson and Fabinho plan summer exits to Saudi Arabia.

Brentford are also looking to add to their squad and Oxlade-Chamberlain’s experience could well suit Thomas Frank’s men who impressed in the Premier League last season. Villa, along with Brighton, can however offer European football as Unai Emery’s team enjoyed a strong finish to last season and qualified for the Europa Conference League.
