Cristiano Ronaldo was angry with Real Madrid that they let Mesut Ozil leave for Arsenal in 2013, it has been revealed.
The Juventus forward felt that the German was a player that he linked up with best at the Bernabeu.
'"The sale of Ozil is very bad news for me. He was the player who best knew my moves in front of goal, I'm angry about Ozil leaving",' was the reaction of Ronaldo according to Ozil.
The transfer took place very quickly.
"At the weekend I was sure that I would stay at Real Madrid but then I realised that I didn't have the confidence of the coach or the board," Ozil continued.
"I am the kind of player that needs this faith and that is what I felt from Arsenal and that is why I joined them."

Players like Özil don't deserve to be treated like that. Only someone like Ronaldo, who could speak against the decision of the club made Real Madrid realize their mistake. Barcelona understands the importance of players, those whose names don't keep coming up on the scoring sheets, as well. Özil is playing far from his potential that he would display in his time at Real Madrid. Players at Arsenal are incapable of converting those passes. This still makes me sad that Madrid mostly cares about scoring sheet players.[Cry][Cry]

Ancelotti had just resumed, taking over from Mourinho, and suddenly Ozil decides to leave. He should have been patient with Ancelotti instead of jumping ship. After his exit Real Madrid has won 4 UCLs, 1 La Liga and several other titles. He's history now, let him be. Many great players have come and gone. We Madridistas love them all. Hala Madrid! ✌🏽

And then they won 4 Champions League in 5 seasons and he wasn't angry anymore. As a matter of fact, he won his first CL with Madrid the very same season Özil left.

Arsenal's forward line has improved greatly in the last two years Lacazette and Aubamayeng are most certainly capable of converting Maybe they were incapable when he joined in 2013 But now it is not their fault But either way This season we've seen a new Ozil - one who wants to be better. This constant drive that is actually visible now makes Ozil almost an entirely different player to the last few seasons
