Arsenal star willing to play for Man United or Barcelona, both sides keen on transfer

Arsenal star Mesut Ozil has under 12 months remaining on his contract but has yet to sign a new deal.

Ozil has been closely linked with a summer exit as a result of his contract stalemate.

The playmaker of Turkish origin will be a free agent next summer unless an agreement is reached over a new deal.

While there is a chance that Ozil could stay in North London there are two clubs he could consider joining according to Goal, Manchester United and Barcelona.

Per the source, both sides are keen on the 2014 World Cup winner.

United boss Jose Mourinho has of course worked with Ozil before during his time in charge of Real Madrid.

Mourinho has even referred to Ozil as being the best No 10 in the world in the past.

Barcelona are reported to be on the lookout for a new playmaker after attempts to sign Liverpool ace Philippe Coutinho fell through.

Ozil has come under fire from sections of the fanbase and pundits this season.

The 28-year-old has yet to score or provide an assist for the North London outfit this season.
