Ozil makes two demands before he moves to Barca
The most likely destination for his services is Barcelona. But before millions of Blaugrana fans go out and buy his jersey, the German international wants to make certain that the club will meet two of his demands.
According to Don Balon, he wants a salary of 19 million euros per season. Such a high amount will put him in the same stratosphere as former-Barca forward Neymar, who earns more than 20 million per season with Paris Saint-Germain.
Secondly, he wants a guaranteed spot in the starting XI under Ernesto Valverde. With the World Cup looming, Ozil wants to make sure he’ll have the opportunity to defend Germany’s title.
Unfortunately for Barca fans, neither of these demands seem likely to be met. First off, the price is absurd. Secondly, Valverde isn’t likely to guarantee him minutes over Iniesta and Rakitic.
