Mesut Özil has posted a tribute to Arsene Wenger following his 2019 Legends of Football award.

Wenger helped lure Ozil to the Emirates from Real Madrid six years ago.

And the 30-year-old took to Twitter to honour his former manager.

Congrats on this award, Mon. Wenger. Well deserved Thanks again for everything you've done for me and the whole @Arsenal family. You have huge respect for the beautiful game and we'll always have huge respect for you. #M1Ö#YaGunnersYa@LoFootballhttps://t.co/cgbFAkN9To — Mesut Özil (@MesutOzil1088) October 9, 2019
