Arsenal: Arteta believes team have 'taken handbrake off'
Mesut Ozil could finally be about to leave Arsenal and Gunners boss Mikel Arteta is already eyeing up replacements for the German. Ozil has reportedly reached an agreement with Fenerbahce regarding a three-and-a-half-year contract at the Turkish club. It could bring to an end a seven-and-a-half-year stay at Arsenal for the former World Cup winner.

The Germany star hasn't started a Bundesliga match since December 5 and hasn't scored a league goal all season.
Reports say Brandt could be available for as little as £22.5million this month, with Dortmund sporting director Michael Zorc refusing to rule out a move.
Emiliano Buendia
Norwich City star Buendia has put last season's relegation behind him by bouncing back in the Championship this term.

The Argentine has seven goals and six assists to his name in 19 league appearances.
Norwich are desperate not to sell though and an asking price of around £40m has reportedly led to the Gunners offering the likes of Reiss Nelson and Joe Willock as part of a deal.
Houssem Aouar
Aouar was reportedly Arteta's top target last summer before the club decided to spend £45m on Thomas Partey.

The Frenchman remains in the plans of Arteta in the future but a January deal looks highly unlikely at the moment.
Aouar has registered three goals and three assists in Ligue 1 so far this season.
Julian Draxler
It wouldn't be a transfer window if Arsenal weren't linked with Julian Draxler.
The German was a regular reported target of Arsene Wenger during his final few years in charge.
Draxler has made just five Ligue 1 starts this season, with it not yet known if new PSG boss Mauricio Pochettino sees the 27-year-old as part of his plans.
