Mesut Ozil was a former star boy for Arsenal football club but it seems like the club is now against him and it may be due to orders from the front office. He is the top earner on Arsenal player’s payroll with £350,000-a-week in wages.
Ozil is earning top dollar in London and Arsenal is not a club that likes to spend money on players. As a result, the club is trying its best to get Mesut Ozil’s salary off their payroll. Either by sending him out on a loan or selling him to another club. However, Arsenal is unable to break their contract with Ozil and it causing friction between Ozil and the club.
Also, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has refused to include Mesut Ozil in his plans and it may look like it’s an order from the front office. Although Mikel did not admit this in public, he has refused to play Ozil even when Arsenal is playing against the bottom of the table teams. When asked about why Ozil hasn’t been used in recent matches.
Here is what Arteta said ” “I’ve been very open with Mesut from day one,” said Arteta.
“I thought he was fit and willing and wanted to perform at the level he can do. I think he has played every game with me.
“The moment I see he is ready to do that again I will treat him like everyone else. I have been more than fair with him and he has responded in many games, the way I want. That’s it”
“A lot has happened to him in the last few weeks and I have to respect the timing of every player. Sometimes they need a little bit of time.
“It has been difficult preparation in the last two months to get players ready.
“Again, I am the first one who wants Mesut at his best. I will put him on the pitch when I think he can give his best.”
When asked how Ozil reacted to being omitted, Arteta replied: “He was very well with me. There were no issues at all.
“My conversation with Mesut is going to remain with him and me. It was a clear and honest conversation.”
Ozil is being professional with the whole situation and he has refused to address the issue publicly. Today he entertained his friend Mathieu Flamini at his mansion in London.
