Brassell insists the deal for Ozil, who currently earns £350,000-a-week, ’seemed utterly impossible’ a few weeks ago.

“It’s something that’s a huge boost for the Turkish Super Lig.

“I don’t think you can see it any other way because people will be simply delighted to have him there.

Ozil has not played a single minute of football since last March having been frozen out by Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta

“This transfer, even a couple of weeks ago, seemed utterly impossible on a financial level, knowing what he earned at Arsenal.

“Even if Arsenal decided to pay some of the wages, it still seemed very unlikely that Fenerbahce could afford this.

“Of course, because they’re obliged to announce such a large transaction to the Turkish stock exchange we’ll know more about the accurate numbers in the next couple of days once the deal is actually done.

“I suspect as deals are often done with very big stars, a lot of it will be heavily weighted to performance and bonus bases.

“Much was the case with Galatasaray when they did quite unsustainable deals for Didier Drogba and Wesley Sneijder going back a few years.”

Brassell is adamant Ozil must guide Fenerbahce to the Turkish Super Lig title this season.

“I’m shocked it’s happened,” he added. “It could be exciting.

“There’s no doubt, on a sporting level, Ozil has to go and win the title with Fenerbahce this season.

“They’ve got a game in hand, they’re three points off Besiktas, who beat Galatasaray 2-0 on Sunday.

“So they could theoretically go back top, or at least joint-top on Monday night.
