Mesut Ozil claims it was “easy to say yes” to an Arsenal contract extension, with his sights being set on “some titles with the team”.
Intense speculation regarding the Germany international’s future lingered at Emirates Stadium throughout the first half of the 2017-18 campaign, with an expiring deal offering cause for concern.
Ozil was, however, to commit his future to the Gunners in February, with a new long-term contract ensuring that he will not be heading the same way as Alexis Sanchez.
The World Cup winner insists he never considered heading elsewhere, with the 29-year-old having unfinished business at Emirates Stadium following three FA Cup triumphs to date.
