The British press has announced that Germany's national team star Mesut Ozil will sign a long-term contract with Arsenal and will now wear the number 10 shirt. Although the footballer's agreement with the London team is valid until the summer of 2018, his future has not been clear up to now. During the summer break, both his former team Real Madrid and teams from the Bundesliga and Premier League were interested in Ozil. However, with the German player demonstrating excellent form, the Arsenal management made great efforts to keep one of their leaders under any circumstances and according to the latest information, extended Ozil's contract for an even longer period. The 27-year-old player was earning over 160 thousand euros per week at the club, but it is expected that after the new contract, this amount will significantly increase and Ozil will become the highest-paid player in Arsenal's history.
