According to reports, after completing a deal for Alexis Sanchez on Monday, Jose Mourinho’s Manchester United are still keen on bringing Mesut Ozil down to Old Trafford.
Ozil’s contract at Arsenal will expire at the end of this season and he is yet to put pen on paper for a new deal with the gunners to extend his stay at the Emirates Stadium.
The German midfielder is currently free to negotiate a pre-contract agreement with foreign clubs this month, and he could be available for a free transfer this summer.
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger already told newsmen he won’t allow Mesut leave his side this January, and he believes the player will eventually agree to sign a new contract.
However, Jose Mourinho’s side are reportedly still interested in signing the 29-year-old and are going to do all it takes to bring him to Old Trafford as a free agent next summer.
Mesut is said to be demanding a contract that will make him earn £300,000 each week, and it appears Arsenal are not ready to offer him that.
Manchester United have already offered Sanchez a deal that made him the highest paid player in the premier league, and Jose Mourinho won’t mind satisfying Ozil with his heart desires just to make him join the Chilean at Old Trafford.
