Mesut Ozil named Germany Player of the Year

Arsenal playmaker Mesut Ozil is named as Germany's Player of the Year for 2015 - the fourth time that he has won the award.

Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil has been named Germany's Player of the Year for 2015.

The 27-year-old has been in sparkling form for the Gunners so far this season, recording 16 assists in 20 Premier League matches to help them to the top of the table.

He is now just four short of the single-season Premier League record held by Thierry Henry, while at international level he has also impressed to help Germany reach the 2016 European Championship.

Ozil, who won the World Cup with Die Mannschaft in 2014, played in eight of his country's nine matches during 2015.

More than 51,000 fans voted for the award, with Ozil the clear winner having garnered 45.9% of the votes, compared to just 15.9% for Bayern Munich's Thomas Muller in second place.

Ozil also scooped the award three years in a row between 2011 and 2013, but missed out to Toni Kroos in 2014.
