Mesut Ozil is interested in moving to MLS in the summer once his contract with Arsenal ends, according to reports.
The German will be able to negotiate with foreign clubs in January, when he enters the final six months of his £ 350,000 per week contract, which currently makes him the top earner on the North London side.
And according to ESPN, Ozil is open to moving to the United States with LA Galaxy, David Beckham’s Inter Miami and DC United among the movement-linked MLS clubs.
The report adds that the Gunners are willing to let the 32-year-old leave next month, but claims that the 2014 World Cup winner still harbors desires to show up for the Gunners in the second half of the season one. time teams present themselves in February.
Ozil has not played for Arsenal since the beginning of March and was left out of coach Mikel Arteta’s Premier League and Europa League squads for the first half of this campaign for “football reasons”.
Recent reports have also suggested that he has a “90 percent chance” of moving on to Turkish Fenerbahce following comments from one of the club’s congressmen, but the same outlet adds that no decision has been made on his next move.
Arsenal have been struggling in Ozil’s absence and are ranked 15th in the Premier League table having scored just 10 league goals this season ahead of Sunday’s clash against Burnley.
Former Gunners boss Arsene Wenger has urged his former captain Arteta to support Ozil and his art and has been adamant that the Gunners outcast is not an unwieldy character.
Speaking to the ESPN Caught Offside podcast, Wenger, 71, said: ‘It wasn’t difficult to handle. He was a guy who had a special quality as a creative gamer and needed to have fun.
‘He’s an artist and these guys are a little more sensitive. They need support and an environment that encourages them to do their best.
You have two ways of seeing a soccer team. You get everyone to do the same, the same intensity of work, the same defensive work, or you find a compromise.
“You have a more creative player on the team who can do less defensive work, but you build a team around him that can make up for these shortcomings. That’s what you have to think about.
