Mesut Ozil will enter the final year of his £140,000-a-week contract at Arsenal at the end of the campaign.
However, as of yet, he hasn't agreed a new deal.
Reports emerged earlier today suggesting Arsene Wenger is fuming with Ozil, who made himself available for the Germany national team despite sitting out the 3-1 defeat to West Brom on Saturday.

Fenerbahce are keen to find a replacement for Robin van Persie
Along with Ozil, Alexis Sanchez is widely expected to leave the Emirates this summer.
And according to the Daily Mirror, Fenerbahce have set their sights on a stunning deal.
The report suggests Robin van Persie, a former Gunner, is likely to leave and his departure could free up a big-money move.
It is said the Turkish outfit want to make a marquee signing and they think Ozil fits the bill.
Moreover, they reckon the fact that Ozil was born to Turkish parents and is currently dating Miss Turkey could sway a deal.
Arsenal broke their club record when they signed Ozil from Real Madrid for £42million four years ago.
