Istanbul Basaksehir desperate for Mesut Ozil deal

Istanbul Basaksehir president Goksel Gumusdag says that his club "would do anything" to sign Arsenal attacker Mesut Ozil.

Istanbul Basaksehir president Goksel Gumusdag has said that his club "would do anything" to sign Arsenal attacker Mesut Ozil.

Ozil only signed a new long-term contract with the Gunners in February, with the playmaker now collecting wages in the region of £300,000 a week.

However, it has recently been reported that Arsenal are 'open to offers' for the German, who has struggled for a spot in Unai Emery's first XI in recent weeks.

Ozil was back in the Arsenal side against Burnley on Saturday, but his future remains unclear, and Gumusdag has revealed that Basaksehir are desperate to sign the attacker.

"Mesut Ozil is a precious player," Bild quotes Gumusdag as saying. "I hope one day our paths will cross at Basaksehir. If he wants to be with us as well, we would do anything to get him."

Ozil has scored four times in 15 appearances for Arsenal this season.
