Transfer: Arsenal Intensify Efforts To Get Rid Of Star Attacker

English Premier League giants Arsenal have doubled their efforts to sell star midfielder Mesut Ozil this summer.

According to The Sun, Uk, the Gunners have decided to sell Ozil in an attempt to raise transfer funds.

Naija News reports that the former German international pockets 350,000 pounds per week in wages at Arsenal.

Unai Emery’s side failed to book a place in the Champions League for the third consecutive season after finishing fifth in the Premier League and failing to defeat Chelsea in the Europa League Final in Baku, Azerbaijan.

The Europa League failure has had a major impact on the club’s finances.

The Sun reports that the club could be hit by a pre-tax loss of more than £50 million, meaning there is increasing pressure on Unai Emery to sell Ozil in order to increase funds.
