Mesut Ozil ready to sign a new contract with "Arsenal"

Londono "Arsenal" team managed to secure one of their most important players.

The website "Goal" reported that the "Gunners" were able to reach an agreement with midfielder Mesut Ozil for a new contract.

The current German's contract was set to expire after this season and the talent was linked with various clubs in Spain and Italy. The "Man Utd" team also showed interest in the midfielder.

"We want to keep Ozil in our club. We hope to do this quickly," - said "Arsenal" manager Arsene Wenger last Friday.

It is reported that the 29-year-old German will sign a long-term contract with the London team.

Having arrived from Madrid's "Real" five years ago for 42.5 million pounds, Ozil has already made 49 assists.
