Major League Soccer (MLS) would be preparing to receive another consecrated star of world soccer, who in this case also has a World Cup under his belt: the German Mesut Ozil.

During his best years the midfielder was known forr his brilliant vision of the game and today, with 33 years, leaves glimpses of his talent at Fenerbahce in the Turkish league.

Specifically the club that wants to get his services is LAFC , who already has the star Mexican striker Carlos Vela in his squad. , his franchise player, and Colombian Cristian Arango.

Retired Turkish soccer player Ridvan D Ilmen, very close to Ozil and even the German sees him as a role model, was the one who revealed the information:

“I meet with Mesut every two weeks. I know of an interest from Los Angeles. I saw a message about that”

The Los Angeles FC project is still quite ambitious. This season 2022 of the MLS they fight for the top of the Western Conference with a magnificent start by ‘Bombardier’ ​​Vela, despite the fact that the attacker has since been lowering his rhythm of play and effectiveness in front of the goal.

The only defeat of those in black and gold was suffered on April 9 against the LA Galaxy in the so-called Traffic Classic.

The American league is known for signing great weight players, most of them in the twilight of their career. In other times before the formation of the MLS, soccer players of the stature of Pelé, Carlos ‘Pibe’ Valderrama or Franz Beckenbauer played on North American soil.

To them we must add David Beckham (LA Galaxy), Robbie Keane (LA Galaxy), Cuauhtémoc Blanco (Chicago Fire), Rafa Márquez (NY Red Bull), David Villa (NY City), Kaká (Orlando City), Wayne Rooney (DC United), Zlatan Ibrahimovic (LA Galaxy) and Javier ‘Chicharito’ Hernández (LA Galaxy).
