Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain can do kick-ups with a golf ball.

Not content with showing off his skills with a normal football, the Arsenal and England midfielder was challenged to undertake a range of street football skills challenges by freestyle football skills expert Colin Nell, in a video for BT Sport’s charitable initiative The Supporters Club.

He passed with flying colours.

Oxlade-Chamberlain, 21, is not only able to show off a range of tricks with a normal ball, but when handed the tiny golf ball is able to keep it up in the air with both feet.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain features in a new BT Sport Film which highlights its charitable initiative The Supporters Club. “Football Stories With the Ox” highlights the power of football on young lives through the work of charities such as StreetLeague, which uses football to inspire and educate. The Ox also competes against StreetLeague’s Bashir and Scott in this short video.
