Ex-Arsenal midfielder Ozil launching his own cryptocurrency

Former Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil is launching his own cryptocurrency.

The 32-year-old playmaker, who left the Emirates for Fenerbahce in January, is expanding his M10 brand by creating a digital coin.

The ex-Real Madrid man, who has nearly 100 million social million followers, posted a photo of his eyes glowing along with an eye emoji.

The Sun reports he will officially launch his cryptocurrency over the coming days.

Fans who purchase it can trade it the same as Bitcoin and also get discounts on his gear plus there will also be opportunities to meet him.

Ozil is following in the footsteps of fellow footy stars Keisuke Honda and James Rodriguez by venturing into cryptocurrency.
