PSG also wanted M. Ozil, but the German chose "Arsenal" © EuroFootball.com

Paris Saint-Germain coach Laurent Blanc mentioned that the new London Arsenal player Mesut Ozil could have ended up in their team.

The impressive French team seriously considered the 24-year-old German, but he decided to move to the Premier League and become a record purchase for Arsene Wenger's coached club.

At the same time, the coach accidentally revealed that he has very little influence in choosing new players for the team.

"To my knowledge, PSG only held negotiations for the acquisition of M. Ozil," said the specialist, refuting reports that the Paris team also wanted to acquire Juan Mata from London Chelsea.

Currently, PSG is in third place in the French championship.
