github.com/golang/oauth2 expects import "golang.org/x/oauth2"

Hi, I am trying to download the library into my workspace, however I tried with no sucess.

My current Golang installation is version go1.12.9 linux/amd64
From my project root path (the project is using go modules) I attempted to get the library but I get the next message:

go: finding github.com/golang/oauth2 latest
go: github.com/golang/oauth2@v0.0.0-20190604053449-0f29369cfe45: parsing go.mod: unexpected module path "golang.org/x/oauth2"
go: error loading module requirements

Later I tried outside the project directory but now I get:

can't load package: package github.com/golang/oauth2: code in directory /go/src/github.com/golang/oauth2 expects import "golang.org/x/oauth2"

I would like to know what is exactly happening and how can I fix it?

go get golang.org/x/oauth2. That's its import path, not github. The github copy is just a mirror.
