The midfielder has made a huge impression in South Africa during a tournament in which he has played a major role in leading Germany to the quarterfinals, where they will face Argentina on Saturday in a clash of the titans. Critics have been universal in their praise for the playmaking astuteness of a player who has allied atypical dribbling and creative talents with the German attributes of strength, positional sense and intelligence.
With just a year left on his current contract with Werder Bremen, speculation has intensified over a possible move for the naturalised German Ozil who named the Premier League and La Liga as his next likely destination in club football.
“The World Cup is all that matters at the moment,” Ozil said to the Sun, as he waxed lyrical about Chelsea in particular and to a certain extent, Manchester United.
“When I get back we can think about my future, but for for now it’s not something I want to give a lot of thought to. To the top players the Premier League is attractive.
“You look at what Manchester United and Chelsea have achieved over the last five years and you see it would be easy to be successful at two clubs like that.
“I see what Michael Ballack achieved at Chelsea and the quality of players he played with and the temptation becomes obvious.
“Trophies are what matters to me. There are two teams in England always at the top and of course that’s attractive. But the same is true for La Liga.
“They’re the strongest leagues in the world.”
