Furious Ozil told Emery ‘you are not a coach’ during Arsenal’s humiliating Europa League final loss to Chelsea, according to claims in Turkey

MESUT OZIL looks to be on borrowed time at Arsenal after the midfielder reportedly laid into Unai Emery during the Europa League final defeat by Chelsea.
The 30-year-old endured a frustrating season under the Spaniard and repeatedly found himself out of the starting XI.
Ozil was taken off against the Blues in the 77th minute and the booing Gunners fans urged him to leave the club.
And according to Turkish news outlet , the German World Cup winner told Emery "you are not a coach" when he was replaced by Joe Willock.
This is reportedly the final straw for Emery and Fanatik claim that the player is now destined to depart the Emirates.
That might suit Arsenal, who are said to be desperate to offload the ex-Real Madrid ace to get him off their wage bill.
Ozil is currently the club's highest earner, pocketing a whopping £350,000-a-week.
And the Gunners are understood to be keen on selling the player to raise funds as they only have a £40million budget for the summer.
It has been claimed that Arsenal are even willing to pay a portion of his mammoth wages at his next club as a sweetener for potential suitors.

Gunners legend Martin Keown was critical of Ozil following the 4-1 defeat in Baku and gave a brutally honest assessment of the former Schalke man.
Ozil flattered to deceive in the 2018/19 Premier League season - chipping in with just five goals and two assists in 24 games.
He might not be the only high-profile star to leave in the window, with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang attracting interest from China.
