Fenerbahce have not given any reasons for Ozil being suspended, but this would not be the first time he’s courted controversy in his career. The 33-year-old often had some issues during his time at Arsenal, which led to him barely playing under managers Unai Emery and Mikel Arteta.

It may be that there has been some further problem with Ozil’s discipline, with journalist Connor Humm claiming it’s to do with a row with coach Ismail Kartal…

Ozil spent seven and a half seasons at Arsenal, scoring 44 goals in over 250 appearances for the north London giants. Ozil formed part of three FA Cup-winning sides for Arsenal, and is also a World Cup winner with the German national team.
