“Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has a year left on his contract at Arsenal, they should be breaking the bank to bring that type of player to the club,” Cunningham told RTE Sport.
“That would improve them in that area of the pitch.”
Oxlade-Chamberlain scored two goals and made seven assists in 29 appearances in the Premier League last season.
