There will hopefully be some good news for Arsenal fans soon concerning our play maker Mesut Ozil, as the Germany international is currently in talks with the club about signing a new contract. Apparently the 27-year old is happy with life in London and being a Gunner, especially with Arsene Wenger getting the side playing at our fluent best with Ozil pulling the strings.
The confirmation that he is to stay with us will be great news for Arsenal fans, of course, but it could also be a double boost if the Metro report about one of his key demands in the ongoing negotiations is true.
The word from the German sports paper Bild is that Ozil wants assurances that Wenger and Arsenal will carry on the strong work in the transfer market that we saw this summer, to keep the team moving forward and getting stronger. If this is true then once we hear about him extending his current deal then we can expect some more big money signings, perhaps in January, but who might they be?
Looking at the squad and the team right now, which areas do you think we need to strengthen?
