Barcelona are set to sign Werder Bremen star Mesut Ozil on a cut price £8 million deal as a replacement for Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas whom they failed to lure to Catalunya. The two clubs have reportedly agreed the fee earlier last night and the deal is currently awaiting a seal of approval from Barca coach Pep Guardiola.
“I have been a Barcelona fan since I was small, and it is my dream to play for them,” Ozil said. “One day, I will complete this dream.”
Manchester United were apparently also keen to sign Ozil and were earlier reported to be leading the race for his signature after manager Sir Alex Ferguson was spotted at Bremen’s friendly against Fulham last weekend. The United boss also did not refute rumours that the club were looking to sign the German star but may now have been beaten to the chase again by the La Liga champions’ profile.
