Agent Affirm Mesut Ozil to Stay at Arsenal

Mesut Ozil

DBasia.news –  Dr Erkut Sogut, Mesut Ozil’s agent, believes his client will stay at Arsenal this season. Ozil’s name returned to the surface and rumored to leave after not playing against Liverpool.

As reported by Mirror and Football London, Sogut asserted that Ozil will stay with Arsenal, even though he is estimated by Fenerbahce and MLS (Major League Soccer) club, DC United. Ozil wants to continue his career with the club that he has defended from 2013.  

His name is indeed a byword in the transfer market this summer. In addition to being absent against Liverpool, Ozil and his wife, Amine Gulse, are also allegedly no longer at home in North London after some time ago victims of armed robbery.

Especially last season, Arsenal have started to be patient with him because he is often injured and inconsistent playing. His appearance was not in line with expectations with quality players like him who had won the 2014 World Cup.

If Ozil leaves Arsenal, Unai Emery, the Arsenal coach, will not feel the loss because the team has two creative players who also play as attacking midfielders: Dani Ceballos and Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

Fenerbahce could have retreated from hunting because they had made a statement unable to pay his salary. But, the issue of the departure of Ozil is still widely circulated during the summer transfer window is still open.

Charlie Nicholas, an Arsenal legend, also regrets Ozil’s difficulties at Arsenal lately, given the magnitude of the quality he has.

“This is a very sad story because he is a very talented footballer. But, talented footballers in modern soccer games, no guests can pass (the quality of play is rare in the era of modern football),” said Nicholas.

“He slightly sacrificed his game to help others, but this did not work because some players did not understand what he wanted. The sad story, he was not seen in big games,” he concluded.
