Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger spent over a week trying to persuade German international midfielder Mesut Ozil that a move to the Emirates would be the best place to make a move for his career; and the attacking midfielder has shared some more information about the content of the phone call.
Ozil completed a transfer deadline move worth around 50 million Euros from Real Madrid to Arsenal.<br />
“Somehow this telephone call just flicked a switch in me,” Ozil told <em>Die Welt</em>. “I thought: ‘what he is telling me is what I have missed at Real: transparency, trust, respect. He told me exactly how he sees me [as a player], how he wants to use me, what he expects from me and what he hopes I will contribute.”
