German midfielder Mesut Ozil, who finds himself out of favor with his Premier League team Arsenal, is reportedly considering a move to the MLS. According to multiple reports from England, Ozil is currently engaged in talks with D.C. United.

Sources say that Ozil has received an “attractive” offer from D.C. that includes more than just a big salary. If he decides to move to the United States, the 32-year-old player will receive help in expanding his brands and businesses like 39 Steps Coffee while also becoming the franchise’s star for years to come.

D.C. United also hopes that Ozil’s agent Erkut Sogut might help them seal the deal. Sogut is believed to have a close relationship with the club’s Chief Strategist Samuel Porter—especially since the duo previously collaborated on Wayne Rooney’s arrival at Audi Field Stadium.

It remains to be seen whether this will be enough to tempt Ozil to come to the MLS, as he is considering several more offers. This includes an approach from Fenerbahce, one of Turkey’s biggest clubs.

Mesut Ozil is in the final six months of his deal with Arsenal and is eligible to sign a pre-contract with a club outside of England. There is also a chance that he’ll depart the club in January if someone is willing to pay a transfer fee for him.

Ozil hasn’t played at all this season, with Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta deciding not to register him for any of the competitions in 2020-21. He made his last competitive appearance against West Ham last March.

It appears that German midfielder Mesut Ozil has played his last game with Arsenal. After not registering Ozil for the new UEFA Europa League campaign, the London club reportedly also decided to leave the 32-year-old player out of their Premier League squad.

English clubs had a 20th October deadline to submit a list of 25 players that they can use in Premier League matches in the 2020/21 season. According to ESPN, Ozil’s name isn’t on the list, which makes him ineligible to play.

Arsenal told Mesut Ozil to find a new club during the offseason, but the player opted to stay put and try to fight for a place on the first team. However, head coach Mikel Arteta made up his mind by then, not featuring Ozil since March.

Ozil is currently in the last year of his contract and will become a free agent next summer. However, Arsenal is expected to try and get rid of him in January, with the latest decision serving as a reminder to the German that he isn’t welcomed at Emirates anymore.

 Ozil has been with Arsenal since 2013. He made 254 appearances for the club in all competitions and has contributed with 44 goals and 77 assists.

German midfielder Mesut Ozil isn’t willing to give Arsenal any break this summer. According to reports, Ozil wants to see out the end of his contract despite the club’s attempts to move him this summer.

Reportedly, Arsenal’s decision is based on financial reasons. The Premier League side is looking to rebuild their squad under the new manager Mikel Arteta and needs to find ways to free up funds for transfer moves. The easiest way to do so would be getting Ozil off their books, considering he is club’s highest earner with $435,000 weekly salary.

Ozil, on the other hand, isn’t ready to give up on his huge salary as it’s highly unlikely he could command such money elsewhere. Sources add that the 31-year-old midfielder also believes he can regain his previous form and is ready to fight for his place in the starting eleven.

Despite being one of Arsenal’s most important players at one point, Mesut Ozil has been going through some rough time since Arsene Wenger left the club. Ozil has been rarely used under Unai Emery and was ineffective even when he was on the field. He also clashed with the Spanish manager on several occasions which just pushed him further down the pecking order.

It appears that Ozil might receive similar treatment from Arteta, as he was left out of the squad against Manchester City on Wednesday due to “tactical reasons.”

Despite his struggles in recent years, there is still an array of interest in Ozil’s services. Several clubs expressed interest last summer, including the Turkish side Fenerbahce. One of the possible destinations for Ozil is also MLS, where Inter Miami and Los Angeles Galaxy reportedly showed strong interest.
