Fenerbahce have launched a text message campaign to raise money to help cover the salary of new signing Mesut Ozil.
Ozil joined Fenerbahce in the current January transfer window after a tough couple of seasons at Arsenal. His contract was set to expire in the summer, but the Germany international reached an agreement with Arsenal to leave six months early.
On an estimated £350k-a-week at the Emirates, the 32-year-old has taken a pay cut to join the Turkish side – the club he supported as a kid. In doing so, he turned down a bigger contract from DC United in the MLS.
