I want to stay at Arsenal, says Mesut Ozil

Like Alexis Sanchez, who has been linked with a move to Manchester City during the summer transfer window, German playmaker Ozil is entering the final year of his current contract.

The 28-year-old, signed from Real Madrid in September 2013, maintains he is hopeful of being able to continue his career at the Emirates Stadium.

Speaking at the launch of Arsenal’s third kit in Sydney, Ozil told the club’s website: “It is definitely my preference to stay. It is such a great club and I have always said that I feel very good at Arsenal.
