Arsenal to leave Mesut Ozil out of Prem squad

Arsenal are set to leave Mesut Ozil out of their registered Premier League squad.

The London Evening Standard says Ozil is set for more misery at the Emirates by being left out of the club's 25-man Premier League squad, according to reports.

The German playmaker is yet to play a single minute of action in any competition for the Gunners this season having fallen out of favour with manager Mikel Arteta, with the 32-year-old, who earns £350,000-a-week at the club, failing to impress.

But now he is set to sink to a new low in his exile from the team, with the Spanish boss preparing to leave him out of his domestic squad.

Arsenal will submit their list of players on Tuesday, with Ozil set to join centre-back Sokratis Papastathopoulos in being omitted.
