Mesut Ozil has denied a report that said he would like to return to La Liga if Arsene Wenger remains manager of Arsenal.

Ozil was bought by Arsenal in 2013 from Real Madrid for £42.5 million.

"Arsène Wenger was a big reason for me joining Arsenal – this hasn’t changed!" wrote Ozil on Twitter.

Ozil and Arsenal had an excellent first half of the season but their title chances have since faded.
