Fenerbahce chiefs confident signing Arsenal outcast Ozil 'in coming days'

Fenerbahce chiefs are confident signing Arsenal outcast Mesut Ozil in the coming days.

Sky Sports says Ozil is finalising his contract termination with Arsenal and will join Fenerbahce as a free agent.

It is thought Ozil will forego a portion of the outstanding wages on the remainder of his contract.

The developments come after progress was made in talks between Arsenal Technical Director Edu, Fenerbahce Director Emre, and Ozil's agent. Arsenal made it clear they wanted Ozil to leave this month before his £350,000 a week contract runs out in the summer.

Fenerbahce have also agreed a deal to sign QPR winger Bright Osayi-Samuel in the summer.
