Mesut Ozil faces an uncertain future at Arsenal as he has just 12 months remaining on his contract but is yet to sign an extension.

The playmaker of Turkish origin has however, hinted that he could be staying on at the club next season.

The Arsenal star renewed his executive box at the Emirates and recently said that he is looking forward to playing alongside summer signing Alexandre Lacazette next season.

“I’m really looking forward to it,” Ozil told Arsenal Player.

“He’s a very good striker who has scored many goals in Ligue 1, not just this season but in previous seasons too. We’re really happy to have such a class striker here with us.

“From what I’ve heard, he’s meant to be very good, always hungry for goals and ice-cold when he gets into a scoring position. My friends who follow the French league know him well and have told me that I’ll definitely have fun with him on the pitch.”

Ozil has now revealed that he will be travelling with the Arsenal squad on their pre-season Australia tour.

The 28-year-old shared a photograph on his official Twitter account looking pretty tanned!

Ozil shared the following message: “Last day in #London before our trip to #Australia #COYG”
