Mesut Özil says he chose to move to Arsenal because of
manager Arsene Wenger's track record of improving players and his team's brand
of attacking football.
The Germany playmaker left Real Madrid in the final hours
of deadline day to join Arsenal for a club-record 50 million euros ($66
million), making him the third most expensive signing in English football
history.
Özil says Wenger is a "world-class manager" who
has "developed (players) under his guidance in the past," and says
"I think I will fit perfectly into" Arsenal's attacking and technical
style.
The 24-year-old Özil says he didn't get a chance to ask
for advice from Germany teammates - and current Arsenal players - Per
Mertesacker and Lukas Podolski about moving to England because "it all
happened so fast."
