Mesut Oezil

My first sport blog post was about Mesut Oezil who had an amazing World Cup. After such a successful tournament it seemed like it was only a matter of time until the 21-year-old moved away from Werder Bremen. Clubs such as Manchester United, Chelsea and Barcelona were all linked with the creative midfielder but on August 18th, Real Madrid announced they had signed him.

Oezil joins his fellow countryman Sami Khedira at the Bearnabeu and the two look set to make waves in La Liga this season under the new 'Number One', Jose Mourinho.

As a Chelsea fan, I'm slightly disappointed we didn't secure the services of Oezil after being closely linked to the player but I wish the kid luck and success at Real Madrid.
