Mesut Özil (Out)

[FreakySami]

They are both being sorted imo

Any news of him signing with Arsenal? Absolutely no news from our end.

Sure days away from the Bayern signed contract leak. They wont pass on a free.

He won’t be joining you lot mate, pretty sure about that.

He stays or leaves in the summer I think.

Yeah but 6 months prior to the end of his contract teams are allowed to sign him for next season. Like the Goretzka deal. Just surprised how quiet things are, might mean that he's signing with Arsenal.

It was looking ominous that he’d be leaving until a few weeks ago. For the last couple of months though he’s been great for us from what I’ve seen and seems to be happy here.
Honigstein seems to think he wants to stay and we will pay him what he wants.

Personally think him and Jack will sign new deals and that’ll be our January business done.

Özil likely to sign but with the situation we are in and no CL football he'll likely to leave

yeah, need to start winning, and also sign proper players

 

[Mark Tobias]

What is going on here. WHy does this club f*ck about with this sh!t all the time. Last year it was Wenger, this year it is Özil and Sanchez, next summer will be Aaron and others. FFS, why can't we sort our **** out.

 

[Tosker]

there was a recent report that he intends to honour his contract, and as that chimes with some of the things he's said in the past, I suspect he'll stay till summer - and if we get CL next season maybe longer

he has the World Cup to look forward to and a marriage to arrange, and may well not want any disruption for now

 

[krackpot]

i get anxiety every time this thread is bumped.

 

[Penn_]

Would we still offer him a huge signing on fee? I can't see Wenger being ok with basically having to pay for him again.

 

[Lookin' for a new Baby]

Will Özil stay if Sanchez goes. I don't care either way, he's not committed to the club if he's stalling on signing a contract, I bet Jack would bite their hand off for another contract.

Unfortunately it seems we are trying to low ball Jack in to a new contract. While I agree with the sentiment in light of everything else going on just get this one over the line. #hope

 

[CurryFlavoured]

I don't see how we can keep Özil with the route the club is going, unless there is a lack of interest from the top clubs but that's unlikely. The ball is in Mesut's court and I can't think of a reason why he'd stay here.

Can we kick Kroenke out of our club? done with him really.

 

[Juan Matas Beard]

Honestly, I think he's taken things too far to stay now. Why wait until the last 6 months of your contract to decide you want to stay? He must have had offers to stay and he's rejected them all to get to a point where he can leave.

The most likely scenario is he wants to honour his full contract and he'll leave Arsenal in the Summer (on better terms than Alexis) for another club but media are clueless on where.

You're probably right. I think the only chance to keep him is to sell Alexis now and get 2 top attackers (left & right) this month. If we finish strong Özil could be persuaded. If I put myself in Özil or Alexis shoes, I wouldn't have signed yet either because as it stands we dont have enough to offer them, not financially but on the pitch.

If he does leave and joins United then footballs dead to me. I can take Sanchez joining City because I don't think he takes them up a level, or even massively improves them, but Özil at United, with Pogba and Matic behind him, could be the best midfield in the league.

 

[<<reed>>]

Özil's PR team and agent are working quite and smooth and they don't want him to get the abuse like Sanchez.
The strange thing is there aren't any strong links bar United.
