Legendary manager Arsene Wenger previously admitted he had to make compromises during his time working with Mesut Ozil at Arsenal.
Former German international Ozil announced his retirement from professional football on Wednesday after leaving İstanbul Başakşehir earlier this year. The attacker previously spent eight years at Arsenal, at the time becoming the Gunners' record signing.
Though he won three FA Cups during his time at the Emirates Stadium, he failed to live up to the heights expected on him. After leaving in the January of 2021 on a free transfer, he finished his career with spells at Fenerbahce and Basaksehir.
