Arsenal star Mesut Ozil picked up an injury following the 2-0 win over Everton at Goodison Park.

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger revealed that Ozil had suffered a knock to his ankle.

“It is an ankle problem but it looks more of a kick than a ligament problem,” Wenger told reporters after the game.

Ozil has however, calmed injury fears after he told the German press that he will be available for the international friendly games against England on March 26 and Italy just three days later.

The World Cup winner has been called up to the national team squad by Joaquim Lowe.

Ozil is one of two ethnic Turks in the current German national team setup with the other being Liverpool midfielder Emre Can.
