Why doesn’t Mesut Ozil play with the German national team in “Euro 2020”?

Ozil played 94 caps for Germany between 2009 and 2018, scoring 23 goals and providing 43 assists, and is considered by many to be one of the great footballers who passed through German history.

Ozil was instrumental in Joachim Loew’s play in the “Manchester” during the 2014 World Cup, but was unable to help his team defend their title after four years in Russia.

Why does Mesut Ozil not play for Germany?

Germany’s poor performance at the 2018 World Cup led to their elimination from the group stage and Ozil later announced his retirement from international football, citing racism as the main reason behind his decision.

The 32-year-old, who has ancestral roots in Turkey, was criticized by the press for meeting and posing for a picture with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, although Ozil denied any wrongdoing, according to a report published by the British newspaper, The Sun. .

Ozil’s 7-year spell at Arsenal was immediately ended and after he enjoyed success in his early years at the Emirates Stadium, he barely appeared for Arsenal at the end of his stay.

Ozil was the club’s highest-paid player with a reported £350,000 a week.

The midfielder moved to Fenerbahce on an initial loan deal in January until the end of the season, which will result in a free transfer to the Turkish club at the start of the 2021/22 season.
