4 Arsenal players who could leave next summer

#1 Mesut Ozil

Arsenal FC v Watford FC - Premier League

Mesut Ozil only signed a new deal with Arsenal in February 2018, but things haven’t been going too well on and off the pitch which could lead to him seeking greener pastures elsewhere. Ozil’s international career is over and there have been rumours of a rift with Emery floating around for two months.

The German playmaker’s often unexplained absences also raise the possibility that he might not be entirely happy at Arsenal. He was heavily linked with a move to Manchester United in 2017 and was believed to be open to the switch before he doubled his money at Arsenal in the form of a new contract.

Clubs could have some difficulty signing Ozil, however. Arsenal would have to accept a bid close to what they paid (£42.4m) in 2013 and Ozil would want his £350k-a-week wages matched. He has three years remaining on his deal with the Gunners, so they wouldn’t be in any rush to sell.
