Mesut Ozil gave Jose Mourinho the stare after the Portuguese manager accused him of being a "coward" during a fiery encounter at Real Madrid.
Ozil has called time on his career aged 34, bringing to a close an 18-year stint as a professional which saw him play for Schalke, Werder Bremen, Real Madrid, Arsenal, Fenerbahce and Istanbul Basaksehir. The playmaker won the World Cup with Germany in 2014 during the peak of his career.
His performances for Germany in the 2010 World Cup saw him earn a transfer to Real Madrid, where he crossed paths with Mourinho. Although he managed 27 goals and 81 assists in 159 games for Real, Ozil’s languid playing style was not always to the taste of Mourinho.
