Mesut Ozil will be with Arsenal till 2021

The main man who has been guiding the team to score goals will be staying with Arsenal. Like Sanchez, there had been speculation that the German may leave for a rival club. Fans were worried that Ozil may be heading to Old Trafford to join Sanchez, but shortly after the January transfer window came to a close, Ozil penned a new contract.

Negotiations in January had been a success and with new recruits from the transfer window, it looks like Arsenal have satisfied Ozil enough for him to pen a 3 year deal with the Gunners.

If Ozil had left for free in the summer, Arsenal would have had to spend another huge sum of money finding a central attacking midfielder with qualities as good as him or even better. It was good news that Arsenal were able to keep their assist-king.
