The father of Arsenal's record-signing Mesut Ozil, has claimed that a
man posing as his son's agent tried to engineer a move Manchester
United.
Ozil became the most expensive German of all time when he signed for the Gunners on transfer deadline day for £42.5m.
However,
the former Real Madrid player's dad has said that a fake agent tried to
move the playmaker to the champions before his eventual switch to the
Emirates.
Mustafa Ozil released a forged document, dated August 7 2013, which appears to have been signed by the representative.
However, Ozil snr said that proceedings were underway to bring the alleged fraudster to justice.
"Someone
wanted to make contact with Manchester [United] in my name and even
signed with my name," he told German publication, Express.
"That
is no trivial offence. We will get to the bottom of it. I would have
never deemed it possible what some dodgy people venture to do." Mesut Oezil gets away from Alaixys Romao
