🗣️ Mesut Özil: “I was very sad when I left Madrid. I remember at the airport, the moment the plane took off, tears fell from my eyes…”
“That was the moment I realized it was over. I had a great time during my three years at Real Madrid and was very happy.”
“But things happened. Suddenly, at the start of that season, I wasn’t getting many minutes anymore, and a conflict arose between Mr. Florentino Pérez and my father, who was also my agent!”
“We had to look for a new club. It was tough for me. I wish we could have handled the situation differently at the time.”
