Mesut Ozil would like to sign an extension with Arsenal but he would like clarity on the future of Arsene Wenger before making a commitment.

Ozil has 18 months remaining on his deal with Arsenal.

“I am very, very happy at Arsenal and have let the club know that I would be ready to sign a new contract. The fans want that I stay and now it is just down to the club.”

Ozil signed in 2013 after three seasons at Real Madrid and said it is not a financial decision.

“The club knows that I am here most of all because of Arsène Wenger. He is the one who signed me and he is the one whose trust I have. The club also knows that I want to be clear what the manager is going to [in the future].” Wenger’s contract runs out this summer.
