Ian Wright predicts whether Mesut Ozil will leave Arsenal
The Arsenal legend opens up about Mesut Ozil's future at the north London club
Ian Wright has admitted that he doesn’t believe Mesut Ozil will remain at Arsenal.
The Germany international has been in scintillating form in the Premier League over the past few weeks.
Ozil scored a sensational winner in Arsenal’s 1-0 victory over Newcastle United at The Emirates on Saturday afternoon.
The 29-year-old has now scored four goals and has made five assists in his last 10 appearances in all competitions.
The German star netted the pick of the goals in Arsenal’s thrilling 3-3 draw with top-six rivals Liverpool FC at the Emirates Stadium on Friday night.
The World Cup winner has been linked with a potential move to Manchester United with less than seven months on his contract.
Ozil could be available on a free transfer next summer, unless Arsenal opt to sell the midfielder in a cut-price January deal.
Former Arsenal striker Wright doesn’t envisage Ozil remaining at the north London club in the long term.
“I can’t see Ozil staying. I’d love to be proven wrong,” Wright told BBC Radio 5 Live.
Arsenal signed Ozil in a £42.5m deal from La Liga giants Real Madrid in the 2013 summer transfer window.
The Gunners midfielder has won three FA Cup crowns in four seasons but hasn’t been able to propel Arsenal to a long-awaited Premier League title.
