5 realistic destinations for Mesut Ozil 

#1 Manchester United

A reunion on the cards?

Most worryingly for Arsenal fans, the club that Ozil has been linked to the most is Manchester United. Jose Mourinho has never been shy to praise the German playmaker and with Mkhitaryan struggling to make an impact, the signing of Ozil could prove to be a perfect tonic for the Red Devils.

Last time United signed an Arsenal player (Robin van Persie), they went on to win the title handsomely and the Arsenal fans will be hoping that such a situation is avoided by their club.

Asked about a potential move for playmaker Ozil ahead of Saturday's clash against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium with Henrikh Mkhitaryan out of favour in Manchester, Mourinho replied: "No comment."

The United manager also went on to speak about the contract situations of modern-day players:

"Sometimes players decide to go in this direction, which is the right that they have. Players have the right to do that and I don't blame the clubs. The clubs, they try. They try, they try, but the players have the right to go into this type of situation and in many times it's good for them.

"Sometimes they can go on a free transfer and they can get huge salaries."

The thought of Ozil and Mourinho together winning trophies at Manchester United will certainly drive any Arsenal fan crazy.
