Oezil demands Wilshere's number 10 before agreeing to renew
British media confirmed that one of the demands in Mesut Oezil's contract extension negotiations was that Arsenal must give him the number 10 shirt.
Oezil is wearing the number 11 shirt at Arsenal. The Gunners' number 10 currently belongs to Jack Wilshere - a player who has almost no place at the Emirates.
The problem is that Oezil has worn the number 10 at Real Madrid and is currently wearing the number 10 for the German national team. Of course, he wants to wear this familiar number at his home team.
Ozil's current contract with Arsenal expires next summer. In addition to demanding a salary of £300,000/week, another condition for Ozil to renew is that Arsenal must force Wilshere to give up the number 10 shirt to him.
This condition is likely to be met as Wilsherer's contract will also end next summer. Arsenal will have to speed up in inviting Oezil to sign a new contract as MU has also joined the race to "hunt" the German midfielder.
