A bizarre clause in Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's contract has explained the midfielder's lack of game time at Arsenal.
The 28-year-old arrived at the Emirates from Southampton in 2011 as a promising teenager but never managed to cement his position as a starter in the Gunners' side.
The England international eventually made the switch to Anfield in 2017 on a £34million transfer after his Arsenal career appeared to stagnate under Arsene Wenger.
Gunners fans were often left frustrated at Oxlade-Chamberlain's lack of game time as he was predominantly used as a substitute.
