Bayern Munich President Uli Hoeness has taken yet another swipe at Arsenal star playmaker Mesut Ozil.
Hoeness recently stated that the 2014 World Cup winner had ‘been playing dirt for years.’
The Bayen President has doubled down, stating that Ozil did not deserve to go to the World Cup.
“We would have been spared the whole theatre,” Hoeness told Sky Sport Germany.
“Ozil should have been forced to make a statement. But leaving that without explanation was probably the biggest mistake ever.
“I’ve been watching the player for a long time and he’s a well-marketed product whose image is a lot better than he is, which is the only big blame for me.
“Had Low gone to Arsenal more often in London and looked at him properly, he probably would not have taken him for sporting reasons.
“It is a miracle that he is now captain at Arsenal.”
Ozil has been under fire in Germany after posing for a photo with Turkey President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
The 29-year-old was singled out after Germany crashed out of the 2018 World Cup by the German press and former internationals. Ozil subsequently quit the national team citing racism and discrimination.
Interestingly, Hoeness has had nothing to say on the Bayern players who also underperformed at the World Cup while Ozil created a total of 7 chances vs South Korea from open play.
Arsenal are back in action this weekend when they take on West Ham United.
