Coach Wenger and Arsenal fans were "favorites" when Mesut Ozil agreed to stay at the club until 2021. Ozil's signing of a contract on the last day of the winter transfer window has helped the Emirates team complete the "super-class quartet" including Lacazette - Mkhitaryan - Ozil - Aubameyang.
Ozil's status post with the hashtag "#YaGunnersYa" on his personal page made everyone feel his extreme joy at staying at the club for another 3 and a half years.
"I have signed for Arsenal for another 3 and a half years, I am proud to announce that to you.
This is one of the most important decisions of my life. Through this contract, I understand that I have to work harder and know what is needed for me.
I listened to my heart call to make this decision. I feel like home here is mine. I am ready to contribute great things in the coming time. A time is Gunner, a lifetime is Gunner," Ozil shared.
According to the commitment in the new contract, Ozil will receive the highest salary in the Premier League, up to 300,000 pounds a week. This is a salary that breaks all records for the "Gunners" because the newly arrived star Aubameyang only receives a salary of 180,000 pounds/week. Clearly, Arsenal are giving the German midfielder special favor.
However, that "call to the heart" of Ozil is being questioned too much about the concept of loyalty in the golden age of money football. Arsenal fans must not forget that this midfielder was demanding to leave when Alexis Sanchez also refused to sign a contract with the "Gunners".
Ozil needs a "stable" place because next summer, he will have 2 important unforgettable events in his life, which are the 2018 World Cup and the wedding. The German midfielder and his girlfriend Amine Gulse will have their engagement ceremony when the 2018 World Cup ends. He was previously a key factor in the "Tank Car" squad on the way to defending the World Cup throne in Russia.
Therefore, if he falls into a "missing" situation in the summer of 2018, Ozil will have to prepare for both a wedding and a World Cup match and practice to find a new destination. Staying at Arsenal at this time was a very wise decision by Ozil.
Ozil remains, receives the highest salary in the foggy country and ensures all work of the collective and individuals. Can anyone in a time of turmoil like this act of "death anniversary" like Ozil?
