Mesut Ozil can become Arsenal legend like Dennis Bergkamp, says Arsene Wenger

Arsene Wenger has told Mesut Ozil he must commit to Arsenal long-term if he is to be appreciated by the club’s supporters in the same way as Dennis Bergkamp.

Ozil is Arsenal’s record signing having joined the Gunners from Real Madrid in 2013 for a fee reported to be in excess of £40m (€45m).

Since then, the German World Cup winner has dazzled fans and opposition alike with his languid style, and his winning goal against Ludogorets on Tuesday night which saw Arsenal qualify for the last 16 of the Champions League for a 17th successive season was testament to his obvious ability.
