Real Madrid midfielder Mesut Ozil is reportedly leaning towards rejecting a move to Arsenal in favour of staying put at the Santiago Bernabeu.

The Gunners, who are under pressure to bring high-profile signings to the Emirates Stadium on transfer deadline day, are said to be in advanced talks with Ozil over a possible transfer.

While Madrid have agreed a fee of around £38.2m with Arsenal, Ozil has not reached a compromise with regards to personal terms and could opt to stay in Spain, according to Marca.

The German international has also been linked with a switch to Manchester United during the transfer window.
