Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil insists that he is comfortable at the North London club and will take a decision regarding his future soon. The German’s contract due to expire at the end of the 2018 season.
Manager Arsene Wenger recently said that the contract negotiations with Ozil and striker Alexis Sanchez were on hold and will resume after the end of the ongoing season.
“Do you think Arsene Wenger tells the journalists (about my future) before he tells me? I know him differently,” Ozil said. “I have a contract until 2018 in London and I feel very comfortable there. We’ll talk soon and then make a decision.”
Arsenal is currently sixth in the Premier League and have now lost four of their last six encounters in all competitions. They were even demolished 10-2 on aggregate by Bayern Munich in the last 16 of the Champions League.
“Of course, we have had a difficult time recently and we are not satisfied with sixth place,” the 28-year-old German added. “I am convinced, however, that we will catch up again soon.”
Arsenal trail fourth-placed Liverpool by six points and are hosting third-placed Manchester City on Sunday.
