# Ozil reportedly wants to join Manchester United

Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil is said to be eyeing a summer move to Manchester United, as he plans to refuse a new contract, according to a report from John Richardson of the [Mirror](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/mesut-ozil-snub-arsenals-contract-11225005.amp).

The German is out of contract at Arsenal in the summer and despite the Gunners wanting to keep him, his representatives have “put out feelers” to United about the possibility of a move to [Man United](https://readmanutd.com/) and the Red Devils have apparently said that they would like to sign the player.

Jose Mourinho is said to be a big fan of the German international and he’d be happy to pay him a decent wage in order to get him on a free transfer.

The 28-year-old, along with Alexis Sanchez, looks almost certain to leave for free in the summer and with the Chilean looking very likely to join [Manchester City](https://readmancity.com/), it will be a kick in the teeth to see Ozil join United.
