Arsenal’s attacking midfielder Mesut Özil has been left out Arsenal’s Europa League squad, a move that suggests that he might be forever dumped by the club.
The 25-man squad does not feature Özil or Sokratis Papastathopoulos. Pundits believe that this could signal the last of days for both players who are winding up their contracts at the club.
The selection of players was based on UEFA regulations that require that four of their eight homegrown places must be for players that were trained at the club.
