Ozil said through his account on “Twitter”: “I was very saddened when I heard that our loyal and famous mascot Jerry Coy, who is an important part of the club, will stop operating after 27 years.”

Ozil, whose contract runs with Arsenal until 2021, earns around £ 350,000 a week, but has not participated in the Gunners’ starting lineup since last season, following his multiple problems with the club’s management and his demotion. .
Arsenal decided to ditch Jerry Coy, who had a role in communicating with fans inside and outside the team’s stadium when he wore the “green dinosaur” charm, to cut expenses due to the impact of the emerging corona virus pandemic.
