Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos has reportedly made contact with former teammate Mesut Ozil in order to convince him to snub a Barcelona move.
The Germany international played three years for Barcelona's fierce rivals before heading to Arsenal in the summer of 2013.
Ozil has since been a valuable performer for the north London giants, but his future has come into question with his existing deal due to expire at the end of the campaign.
A recent report from Don Balon claimed that Barcelona could seal a pre-contract agreement with Ozil during the upcoming transfer window, but the same publication has now suggested that Ramos is doing his part to block the speculated move.
The three-time Champions League winner shared a fond relationship with Ozil during their time together at the Bernabeu and he feels it would betrayal to his former employers, should he pursue a move to Catalonia.
Ozil has made a decent start during the current Premier League campaign, contributing one goal and three assists in the space of 10 top-flight appearances.
