Mesut Ozil has been confirmed as an Istanbul Basaksehir player after having his contract terminated at fellow Turkish Super Lig side Fenerbahce.
The former Germany international has signed a one-year deal at the Fatih Terim Stadium with the option of a further 12 months.
Ozil had been under contract with Fenerbahce until the end of the 2023-24 season, but he was banished from the first team in March and new boss Jorge Jesus made it clear the playmaker was not part of his plans either.
Kulübümüz, son olarak Fenerbahçe Spor Kulübü nde oynayan Mesut Özil ile 1+1 yıllığına anlaşma sağladı.
Mesut Özil e ailemize hoş geldin diyor, turuncu-lacivertli formamızla başarılar diliyoruz.
