Turkey’s prestigious club chairman Fenerbahce said he was close to the transfer of midfielder Mesut Ozil (Arsenal).

According to the British media’The Sun’ on the 12th (Korean time), Chairman Ali Kok Fenerbahce said in an interview with Turkish media that “we are much closer than before.”

In an interview that day, Chairman Cork said, “Oezil is still a dream (for our club). No one in our club has yet made an announcement (relating to Özil’s transfer). This is a problem between Arsenal and Özil. We He emphasized that he is much closer to recruiting Özil than before.

Chairman Cork said, “The negotiations are not quite over yet. The negotiations may or may not be over well. You cannot officially say anything until you sign,” he said cautiously about the situation.

However, he said, “Our club management team knows what the coaching staff wants. All of our recruitment policies follow this policy,” he said in a hurry to mention that the Fenerbahce club wants Özil.

Özil, who joined Arsenal in 2013, is expected to end up with the club this year. Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta has already made it clear that he is a non-powerful resource, such as removing Özil from the Premier League registration list before the opening of the 2020-2021 season. Özil, who has revealed his love for Arsenal several times, is also planning to leave the team through the transfer market this winter.

Özil is currently strongly connected with Fenerbahce in Turkey and DC United in the United States. Özil, a Turkish-German, is more strongly tied to Fenerbahce. Özil said that if he heads to Turkey through his Twitter that day, the only destination is Fenerbahce.
