Savior on Schalke? Özil "doesn't want to steal the show from Sead"
No, Mesut Özil will probably not switch to his home club Schalke 04 in the current transfer period. Although the 2014 world champion has only been sitting in the stands at Arsenal London for months and his club would love to get rid of him quickly, Özil will not help the Royal Blues, who are still seriously threatened by relegation. And he presents a good, plausible, even selfless reason for this: When a fan asked him to please support FC Schalke 04 for the rest of the season, Özil replied: "I don't want to steal the show from Sead (Kolasinac)", garnished with a smiley face.
Kolasinac recently moved back to Gelsenkirchen from London and is seen as the Bundesliga club's manifest hope of staying up. The lightning effect of the transfer: After 31 games, Schalke ended their 31-game winless horror series at the weekend – with Kolasinac as captain.
