Arsenal star Mesut Ozil and Manchester City midfielder can often be found across their multiple social media platforms giving followers an update of their lives.

Ozil is one of the most followed players in the Premier League across the major social media platforms.

The playmaker of Turkish origin probably won’t be too pleased to find out that he’s going to have to give it up for the World Cup.

The Mirror revealed there will be no social media for the Germany players in Russia.

It turns out that Ozil and Gundogan are actually the reason for the ban in the first place.

Spanish daily El Confidencial claim that Low has ‘imposed martial law’ to avoid further ‘misunderstandings’ after Gundogan and Ozil met with Turkey president Recep Tayyip Erdogan and had the photographs shared across social media.

Ozil and Gundogan, who are both Germany international players of Turkish descent met president Erdogan, gave signed club shirts as a gift and posed for photographs.

The issue sparked controversy in Germany but they have both been called up to the 23-man squad.

Low wants no more distractions and has therefore banned the squad from courting any more controversy.
