Chelsea want Walcott or Oxlade-Chamberlain in exchange for Cech

Chelsea want either Theo Walcott or Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain as part of a deal that could see Petr Cech move to Arsenal, according to the Telegraph.

The Gunners have long been linked with a move for the Czech Republic international, who is expected to leave Stamford Bridge this summer after eleven years with the Blues.

Walcott, who is in his tenth campaign with the North London club, has made just thirteen starts in the Premier League this season with fellow England international and Southampton alumni Oxlade-Chamberlain racking up just four more.

Between the two, they have fifty-eight caps for their country, with Walcott leading Oxlade-Chamberlain 5-4 in terms of international goals.

Having wrapped up the league title earlier this month, Chelsea entertain a Sunderland side who on Wednesday evening secured their top-flight status with a point at the Emirates Stadium while Arsenal host West Bromwich Albion with one eye on next weekend’s FA Cup final.
