Mesut Ozil set to sue Real Madrid president Florentino Perez over unprofessional jibe
Arsenal new boy Mesut Ozil is set to take Florentino Perez to court after the Real Madrid president branded him unprofessional and obsessed with women.
Ozil was criticised by Perez following his £42.5million switch to the Gunners on transfer deadline day.
The deal left Madrid fans furious, with the 24-year-old one of their key players, but Perez justified the sale by insisting that Ozil had a bad attitude.
Ozil was not a good professional. He was obsessed with women. He would go out at night with his mistresses and without sleep for hours and hours, Perez said.
But the play-makers father and agent Mustafa Ozil is not letting the issue go, and has now confirmed that his son is seeking legal action over the comments.
Just because a person earns a lot of money, does not mean they are automatically a man of honour, said Ozil senior.
Perez is not a man of honour he has turned Mesut into a scapegoat. Its a setup.
We will legally defend ourselves, so people know how professional we are.
Its thought that Ozil will demand a public apology or millions in compensation, with German paper Bild claiming the player has been left enraged by Perez.
Meanwhile, Ozil is in line to make his Arsenal debut against Sunderland at the weekend, with Arsene Wenger missing a number of players through injury.
