Manchester United have been linked with a move for the winger with the 28-year-old still yet to agree a deal.

Turkish giants Besiktas have also been linked with a move for the former Real Madrid.

However, his representative Erkut Sogut has revealed his client wants to stay in the Premier League.

And despite interest from elsewhere, he revealed the 2014 World Cup winner could remain in North London.

He told Fanatik: "Mesut is glad to hear of Besiktas being interested in him, however, no proposal has reached us.

"Even if that did happen, he wants to play in the Premier League for at least two to three more years.

"Our contact with Arsenal continues and we are moving in a positive direction."

Ozil is currently out of Arsene Wenger's side and faces a fight to get back into the team for the trip to Watford on Saturday afternoon.

He has been struggling with a knee problem that kept him sidelined.

And that has limited him to just appearances in all competitions for the Gunners.

Since his arrival at Arsenal in 2013 he has helped the club to win the FA Cup three times.
