Shkodran Mustafi has spoken of the important role Mesut Ozil played in convincing him to join Arsenal this summer.
The Valencia defender is poised to move to the Gunners in a £35 million deal before the transfer window closes on Wednesday, per BBC Sport. Speaking about the switch, the centre-back revealed he has spoken with some of his compatriots about the club and what’s attracted him to the Emirates Stadium.
“He [Ozil] told me everything I wanted to know,” he told Sky Sports in Germany (h/t Mark Crellin of Sky Sports).
