Oxlade-Chamberlain’s Silence Shocker…
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, who once soared through Liverpool’s midfield like a caffeinated squirrel, found himself unexpectedly leaving the club. Despite his considerable contributions and shiny Premier League and Champions League medals, he was only told about his departure three days before the world knew. His contract ended quietly, like a mouse tiptoeing away from a cheese trap, after six years with the Reds, during which he became well-versed in the universal language of silence from the management.
The announcement came devoid of drama, like pop rocks without the pop. He insists that there wasn’t a fallout with Jurgen Klopp, though he probably enjoyed watching Liverpool more from the stands than when his boots were off the pitch. After being hugged goodbye with heartfelt speeches along with his fellow players Milner, Firmino, and Keita, he made his exit from Besiktas—a parting of ways quieter than a librarian in slippers. Rumors are now rife about a potential move to Birmingham City, perhaps hoping for an announcement this time in less than three days’ notice.
