Monchengladbach Chief Claims Returning Reece Oxford Wants to Leave West Ham Permanently

Borussia Monchengladbach director Max Eberl has claimed that Reece Oxford wants to leave West Ham and continue playing in Germany, following his loan spell with the club.

West Ham recently recalled the teenage defender from his loan spell at Monchengladbach, amid speculation over a permanent deal.

The young prodigy has played three league games this term, but his time in Germany was cut short due to David Moyes needing to improve his side at the back to ensure Premier League survival.

However, Gladbach’s sporting director Eberl spoke out about the German side’s interest in Oxford, as well as the player’s desire to leave the London club.
