The midfielder has a contract at Tottenham until 2024.

Fenerbahce sporting director Emre Belozoglu has claimed Mesut Ozil is “closer than ever” to joining the club.
Emre said: “We had a meeting with him and his agent. It’s happening slowly, but Mesut is closer than ever to Fenerbahce. The fact that Mesut’s childhood dream is still alive and Fenerbahce has such a dream has made this step so close for the first time.”
Ozil has been frozen out by Mikel Arteta this term and the Arsenal manager confirmed “there are some conversations, but nothing concrete” when asked about a potential move for the 32-year-old on Thursday night.
