Mesut Ozil has allegedly angered his Arsenal teammates with his 'prima donna attitude' and recurrent injuries woes.

According to The Sun, members of the Gunners' squad are unhappy with the number of times the club's top earner has declared himself unavailable through injury this year.

Ozil has missed Arsenal's last five games with a back problem and is not expected to return to action this season.

The same issue has kept the German out of 25 of the Gunners' 58 matches this season, and some of his teammates are said to have been furious when he missed training ahead of the weekend's victory over Burnley.

Ozil became Arsenal's top earner in January when he signed a new contract worth £350,000 per week.
