Ozil was paid an 8m loyalty bonus last month.
Might help explain why he wanted to stick around for his final year. What an utter waste of money, who would have known how much of a disaster giving him this contract would turn out to be.

I actually can’t remember a time in my life when I wasn’t talking about Mesut Özil any more.
anyone with a brain who knew you shouldn't just throw money at people - it was all just because Sanchez was sold and we didn't want to be seen to be losing two prime assets in one go, but we didn't need to pay him so much or for so longOriginally Posted by Marc Overmars

Is that it now? The last transfusion? Or is this the contract that keeps on giving?Ozil was paid an 8m loyalty bonus last month.

How have we agreed to sign a contract that awards bonuses to players that aren't playing? Loyalty? So they canned Gunnersaurus after 27 years and paid Ozil a "loyalty" bonus? No wonder he wanted to give some of the money back. I bet even he can't believe how shitty that contract is.

I'd forgotten about that but yeah, you're right. We threw trucks full of money at him so he didn't leave in the same window as Sanchez.
It was a bonus written into the contract to reward him for seeing it out. Obviously the guys who gave him the deal felt like Ozil was going to be the cornerstone of this team for years to come.
Goes without saying the contract has aged horribly.
I think he also gets "performance" bonuses if he "plays" on top of his "basic" £18.2m "salary" and "loyalty" bonuses.
At least we know how the offer to pay Gunnersaurus's salary* is being funded now.
*For as long as Özil is still employed by Arsenal FC.
There's nothing like the satisfaction of a hard day's work and pay well earned.

Well he just received a 8million pound bonus, what do you think he should do with that?
