Ozil: Ignore the noise

Mesut Ozil has told fans to "ignore the noise" amid reports linking him with a move to Manchester United.

Several newspapers reported the Germany international has told his Arsenal team-mates he will be making a January transfer move to Old Trafford, with his contract at the Emirates set to expire in the summer.

Arsene Wenger insisted Ozil will remain "100 per cent committed" to the Gunners as long as he is at the club, telling Sky Sports the midfielder has "a social contract with the rest of the players".

Ozil appears to have responded to the speculation around his future on social media, indicating his mind is focused only on Arsenal's game against Everton on Sunday.

The 28-year-old tweeted: "Ignore the noise and stay focused."
