Mesut Ozil wants the No10 shirt vacated by former Arsenal teammate Jack Wilshere.
The Mirror says Ozil will ask for the Arsenal No10 shirt following Jack Wilshere's departure.
Germany superstar Ozil has worn the No11 to date with the Gunners but always wanted the iconic shirt, which his advisers also see as a big marketing tool as he also wears 10 for the national side.
Wilshere, 26, has announced he is leaving Arsenal as he is now a free agent.
West Ham have already moved in to try and sign the 26-year-old England midfielder, who comes from a family of Hammers fans.
