The Premier League club smashed
their transfer record to sign Ozil for £42.5m on Monday, days after he
said he would stay with the nine-times European champions for a fourth

Ozil sulked after Ancelotti substituted him in last month’s La Liga match at Granada and the Italian then left him on the bench for Sunday’s 3-1 victory at home to Athletic Bilbao.
“I was certain…that I would stay at Real Madrid,” Ozil said in an interview published on the German soccer federation’s website on Tuesday.
“Then I realised that I didn’t have the confidence of the coach and the officials after all,” added the 24-year-old of Turkish origin.
Ozil’s departure, which followed Real’s purchase of winger Gareth Bale from Tottenham Hotspur for a world-record fee of €100m, prompted head-scratching in Spain as he was one of Real’s most creative squad members.
