Mesut Ozil signs new mega contract, will be handed number 10 shirt!

Arsenal star Mesut Ozil has reportedly signed a whopping deal with the Gunners. The Germany international, whose previous contract at the Emirates was scheduled to expire in 2018, was in negotiations over extensions for some time but for one reason or another, it was getting stalled. But the fans can finally heave a sigh of relief after German news outlet Bild claimed that the midfielder has signed a contract extension with the club.

The report claimed that the new deal is set to make Ozil, the highest paid player at the club. The midfielder is currently on a £140,000-a-week contract The lucrative deal will also see him wearing the number 10 jersey  after Jack Wilshere left for Bournemouth on a season-long loan. Ozil, who used to wear the number 10 jersey at Real Madrid, had expressed his desire of wearing the number 10 jersey after Wilshere left for Dean Court.

Bild’s journalist, Henning Feint, tweeted: “Mesut [Ozil] gets a new mega contract with Arsenal.

“It states he will now wear the number 10 instead of 11.”

“It will be in all the papers tomorrow (Wednesday).

Ozil, who signed for the Gunners for a club-record £42.5 million from Real Madrid in 2013, is one of the most important players for Arsenal. He finished last season top of the Premier League assists chart with 19 and will look to replicate that form as the North London club is desperately trying to end their Premier League title drought.

The Gunners will now look to convince Alexis Sanchez to sign a contract extension. The Chile international’s current contract with the club is expiring in 2018 and there have been a lot of speculations about his future after he was linked with several clubs.
