Blunt Unai Emery gives reason for Ozil’s exclusion

Reports on the press have continued to hint that Arsenal manager Unai Emery and German international Mesut Ozil are not on the same page at the Emirates Stadium.

The duo is reported to be at loggerheads with the Spanish boss exhibiting his disappointment with the former Real Madrid player for giving less than he takes from the club.

Unai Emery is of the opinion that Mesut has not been living up to expectation especially when it comes to big games, leaving the club to suffer despite his huge weekly wage.

This, therefore, ensured that the former Real Madrid star is linked with a move away from the Emirate Stadium with a number of clubs already seeking for his signature.

However, Mesut Ozil has come out to state that he will not be leaving the North London side in this winter transfer window but will stay to fight for his shirt and also see out his contract.

This, therefore, made press men face the former PSG boss with the questions regarding the German midfielder which he dogged from giving a direct answer.

Emery in his reply made it known that Ozil was not in training in Thursday which means he is unavailable for selection.

The Spanish boss made it clear that he will feature Ozil as soon as he is ready to play.
