Ozil addresses Arsenal exit rumours?

Mesut Ozil appears to have hinted that he has no plans to leave Arsenal following reports that he will try to engineer a January departure.

The German World Cup winner moved to the Emirates for a club-record fee of £42.5m last year, but has struggled to make a significant impact on the pitch.

At the weekend, reports emerged claiming that Bayern Munich are planning a £30m January bid, while Arsenal's rivals Manchester City are also believed to be interested in the playmaker.

Following the rumours, Ozil took to Twitter to thank his well-wishers after it was confirmed that he will be sidelined for three months with a knee injury, and he also suggested that he is committed to Arsenal.

The 25-year-old wrote: "thanks for your support following my injury. I'll come back on the pitch soon as I can to help #AFC. now and in the future #MiaSanArsenal."

Ozil has scored six goals in 32 Premier League matches.
