Mesut Özil (31) became a father. The ex-international and his wife Amine (26) announced on Monday evening on Instagram. Both published a black and white snapshot showing the small family of three. The professional footballer wrote: "Thank you, God, that our daughter Eda was born healthy." The couple did not provide more information.
Özil and the former beauty queen said yes in Istanbul in June 2019. The Turkish head of state Recep Tayyip Erdogan (66) acted as the best man. The fact that the 26-year-old is expecting a child has never been publicly confirmed. All the more surprising: soccer colleagues such as Lukas Podolski (34) and Julian Draxler (26) congratulate the new father and midfielder from Arsenal. Motsi Mabuse (38) and Scarlett Gartmann (26) also congratulate the couple.
