‘Ozil statue? Wenger is next, then Saka in 10 years’ – Arsenal outcast didn’t fulfil potential, says Parlour

Mesut Ozil will not be remembered as an all-time great at Arsenal, says Ray Parlour, with the former Gunners star of the opinion that Arsene Wenger and Bukayo Saka are next in line for statues at Emirates Stadium.

Attention is starting to turn towards the legacy that will be left in north London by a World Cup winner when he finally heads through the exits.

A deal in the January window is said to be on the cards, with Mikel Arteta having left a door open for Ozil by freezing him out of his plans in 2020-21.
