Mesut Ozil has been left out of Arsenal’s Europa League squad according to talkSPORTS.

The German who signed a deal in January last year, earning him around £350,000 per week as the club's highest-paid player has been out of favour at the Emirates and has decided to see out his contract before making any further plans.

His omission from Mikel Arteta’s squad for Europe reveals that he is no longer a part of the Spaniard’s plans and reports suggest that the player will soon be axed from the Premier League squad when clubs are allowed to pick 17 players defined as “non-homegrown. on October 20”

He is yet to feature for the Gunners after seven months since his last participation. He is also yet to make the matchday squads of the new season.

The player’s weekly wage is weighing Arsenal in such a time of coronavirus where club’s finances have been heavily hit and until an agreement is reached between the two parties, the Premier League club will continue to be agonized while waiting for his contract to end.

Sokratis Papastathopoulos was also left out of the squad together with Gabriel Martinelli, who is nursing a long term injury.
