Arsenal are attempting to drum up January interest in Mesut Ozil.
The Mirror says Emirates chiefs haven given up on getting Ozil to agree terms and are looking to find him a club.
But Ozil's mammoth wage demands have put off a number of clubs, although Inter Milan have expressed an interest.
The playmaker, 29, is chasing a £330,000-a-week package, which would smash Arsenal's wage structure.
A perceived lack of desire is reportedly starting to create rifts in the dressing room - making attempts to find a buyer more crucial.
