Fenerbahçe Istanbul has a new coach – and he makes it clear that Mesut Özil remains suspended. The paths at his “boyfriend” are for Ozil no easy ones.
Former international Mesut Özil remains suspended at Fenerbahçe Istanbul. The new coach Jorge Jesus made that clear at his presentation. “Past successes are very important. Mesut Özil is a very good footballer, but the club’s decision about him remains,” said Jesus.
The 33-year-old Özil was suspended at the traditional Turkish club in March and has not played a game for Fenerbahçe since then. “It’s not Özil, Jesus or any other player that counts here, but Fenerbahçe,” said Jesus.
career goal achieved
Özil had only declared on social networks on Tuesday that he wanted to stay with Fenerbahçe. “I reiterate emphatically: I will not end my career with any team other than Fenerbahçe. As long as my contract is up, my only goal is to just sweat in our jersey. This decision is very clear and final,” he wrote.
