Arsenal star ‘desperate’ for summer move to La Liga giants Barcelona

Arsenal star playmaker Mesut Ozil is looking for a move away from the Emirates this summer according to reports.

Spanish publication Don Balon claim that Ozil is ‘desperate‘ to leave the Gunners and join Barcelona.

Per the source, Ozil has instructed his representatives to make the move happen before the end of the transfer window.

The 28-year-old has under 12-months remaining on his contract with Arsenal and is yet to agree a new deal.

However, Ozil has recently signalled that he is happy at Arsenal and that he wants to stay.

Ozil will play Europa League football for the first time since making the move to Arsenal. The Gunners finished last season outside of the top-four for the first time in 20 years.

The Germany international missed Arsenal’s win over Chelsea on Sunday due to an ankle injury. Ozil is also a doubt going into this week’s clash with Leicester City.
