Mesut Özil and Arsenal have reached an agreement over a contract extension according to Don Balon.

The 27-year-old is currently reported to earn a total of £12.43 million per-season, £8.43 million of which stems from salary and bonuses while £4 million derives from sponsorship which makes him the highest paid Gunners player in the current team.

Özil has two years remaining on his deal with Arsenal and has been in scintillating form of late.

The Germany international broke the assist record he created against West Brom at the Hawthorns when he setup Giroud. Özil has now provided an assist in seven consecutive games which is a Premier League record.

The World Cup winner has a total of 11 assists in 12 games for the Gunners now which is the highest in Europe’s top five leagues including England, Spain, France, Italy and Germany.
