Strengths: His control on the ball is excellent, has great vision and can unlock a defence with his creativity. Also boasts a powerful shot from distance.
Ozil establish himself as one of Europe's finest footballers; he produced numerous assists -- particularly for team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo -- as Madrid won the 2011-2012 La Liga title. Ozil also continued to shine on the international stage with Germany, so it was a surprise when -- seemingly at the peak of his powers -- Madrid let him leave on transfer deadline day in September 2013.
Ozil starred for Germany during the 2009 U-21 European Championship, earning Man of the Match honors for his goal and two assists in a resounding 4-0 finals victory over England. His ascent continued after he was selected to the 2010 FIFA World Cup squad, where he displayed his remarkable all-around abilities. Özil scored once and provided several assists to help Germany achieve a third-place finish, thus earning him a spot among the 10 nominees for the tournament's Golden Ball Award.
