Arsenal Transfer News: Latest Rumours on Mesut Ozil, Jon Toral Nears Loan Exit

Mesut Ozil has revealed that he is eager to sign a new contract at Arsenal but wants a guarantee that manager Arsene Wenger will remain in charge beyond the end of the 2016-17 season.

Along with the Alexis Sanchez, the Germany international has been reportedly locked in negotiations over signing a new deal for some time—his current deal expires in 2018—and there have been suggestions he may depart the club, per the Sun's Alex Terrell.

He has now insisted he is happy at the club but his future depends on Wenger remaining in charge, per German outlet Kicker (h/t the Guardian's Marcus Christenson):

I am very, very happy at Arsenal and have let the club know that I would be ready to sign a new contract.
