Mesut Ozil-Mathieu Flamini bromance reaches new levels with ad

The bromance between Mesut Ozil and Mathieu Flamini shows no sign of waning despite the French midfielder having left Arsenal.

The former teammates are even taking their friendship to a cringeworthy new level by making it the topic of a new Mercedes Benz advert.

Ozil, who is sponsored by Mercedes, included his best buddy in the latest of a series of commercials with the theme "What drives Mesut," where they discuss the importance of their relationship.

"He was like a big brother to me, with whom I spend a lot of time in London," Ozil says of Flamini, who left the Gunners last summer and is playing for Crystal Palace this season.
