Ozil: “I'm not going to play in Germany again”

Mesut Özil was finally introduced as a new Fenerbahçe player. After breaking his contract with Arsenal, the German player has signed a three and a half year contract with the “team of your dreams”. His family has accompanied him in a presentation that has had the presence of up to 10 foreign media.

Turkish club president Ali Koc stated that he visited Mesut last December 10 in England and that was where the negotiation entered a new phase. “Something caught my eye there. At that moment, Mesut Özil spoke about his dream of playing for the team he loved in his childhood and said he would not worry about financial problems. Later, negotiations began. The process is complete and here we are today. Fenerbahçe have achieved another signing that was believed impossible, as they have done on other occasions in the past. “

Sporting director Emre Belozoglu said that the signing of Mesut Özil is a beautiful dream for Fenerbahçe. “It is also a dream for Mesut. We have a very good team. Together with him, we will become stronger, together we will raise many trophies ”declared Belezoglu.

Mesut Ozil, made his statements in Turkish showing very happy to fulfill “a dream”. “I think we will have a successful season. I am very excited and happy.. It's a dream for Fenerbahçe and it's a dream for me too. It will be a great relationship for both parties. I hope I can help the team with my talent. I think I will win the Turkish league title with Fenerbahçe, it is the team's goal in every season. I hope we get it. “

The player was also asked about a possible return to the Bundesliga, to which he responded with a forceful, “No, I will not play in Germany again“He also clarified that despite wanting the best for the German team, does not think about defending the German team again. We recall that the player resigned in 2018 from the national team as he considered that had received racist treatment by the German football association, after a meeting he had with Turkish President Erdogan.

Finally, wished Arda Turan luck, former rival when both played in the Spanish capital and now they will meet again defending the colors of two eternal rivals like Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe.
