Mesut Ozil transfer to Manchester United is a "shoo-in", claims Arsenal legend Ian Wright
Mesut Ozil to Manchester United is a "shoo-in", according to Arsenal legend Ian Wright.
United boss Jose Mourinho is keen on the Arsenal midfielder who is also a target for Barcelona as he is out of contract in the summer.
Mirror Sport revealed United’s interest in Ozil and he is also free to sign a pre-contract agreement with Barcelona from January 1.
Wright told the BBC: “Mesut Ozil on a free to Manchester United on a free looks a shoo-in. I’m sure Jose would love to do that.
“That would frighten me to death. He is a great talent and having great players around him would lift him up as well.
“I’m sure him and his agent would not push it this far if they were going to sign (for Arsenal)."
Meanwhile, Ozil is a doubt for Arsenal's clash with Huddersfield on Wednesday night.
The German sat out the dramatic win over Burnley through illness and Arsene Wenger admitted the visit of Huddersfield may come too soon.
Arsenal host United on Saturday and Wenger will hope to have Ozil available by then - even if it could serve as an audition of sorts to Mourinho.
