Midfielder Arsenal Mesut Ozil fell into the sphere of interests of the Catalan club.

For a long time, Liverpool midfielder Philippe Coutinho remains the main transfer goal of "blue-garnet", but Liverpool absolutely does not want to part with his football player.

As reported by Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona considers the Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil as an alternative.

According to the publication, the Catalans will try to acquire Mesut already in the January transfer window.

The contract with Osil's "Gunners" expires at the end of the season, and the head coach of Londoners Arsene Wenger has already said that the German can leave the team in the winter.

Earlier it became known that Arsenal would be ready to release Mesut for 30 million pounds.
