Bayern Munich President Uli Hoeness has launched a vile attack on Arsenal playmaker Mesut Ozil.
The 29-year-old announced on Sunday that he no longer wants to play for the Germany national team after accusing German FA officials of discriminating against him.
Ozil found himself under fire after posing for a photograph with Turkey president Recep Erdogan shortly before the 2018 World Cup.
Germany crashed out of the tournament in the group stage with Ozil being singled out by the media for blame.
Bayern Munich President Uli Hoeness has also waded in by slamming Mesut Ozil following his decision to stop playing for the national side.
“I’m glad it is over. He’s been playing dirt for years,” Hoeness told reporters.
“He last won a tackle before the 2014 World Cup. And now he hides himself and his c*** performance behind this photo.
Hoeness went onto reveal that Bayern targeted Ozil whenever they played Arsenal in Europe.
“Whenever we played against Arsenal, we played over him, because we know he’s the weak point”, Hoeness stated.
Ozil has already returned to pre-season training with Arsenal. The Gunners take on Atletico Madrid in a friendly encounter later this week.
Arsenal’s first game of the 2018/19 Premier League season is against the reigning champions Manchester City.
