Ozil becomes highest-paid Arsenal player

German World Cup winner Mesut Ozil gave Arsenal a big boost on Wednesday by finally agreeing a new contract which will see him become the highest paid player in the club's history, AFP reported quoting BBC.

The broadcaster reported that the 29-year-old playmaker -- who has been with the Gunners since joining from Real Madrid for a then-record club fee of £42.4million ($60million, 48.2million euros) in 2013 -- signed a three-and-a-half year contract and will earn around £350,000 a week.
