Portugal captain and famous football maestro Cristiano Ronaldo left a comment on his former teammate Mesut Ozil’s Instagram video where the former Real Madrid and Arsenal star is seen working out in a gym.
Ozil, who retired in March 2023, is surely not wasting his time in retirement as the former attacking midfielder doesn’t seem to be missing any gym sessions.
The 35-year-old, during his playing days, was one of the very few footballers who were not known for their exceptional physical characteristics. The recent video where Ozil is full of muscles caught his fans off guard.
Just like everyone, his former teammate Cristiano Ronaldo also looked equally surprised as he went on to comment on the 2014 World Cup winner’s job.
It is worth noting that Ozil was one of the greatest players during his prime. The German midfielder announced himself to the world with a spectacular 2010 World Cup campaign which earned him a move to Real Madrid.
Ozil played in Madrid for three years where he played in 159 games scoring 27 goals and providing 81 assists. He built one of the best partnerships with Ronaldo during that time and was key to Jose Mourinho’s history-making side that won La Liga with 100 points in 2012.
In 2013, after Madrid completed the signing of Gareth Bale, Ozil moved to Arsenal, where he stayed until 2021 and played 254 games with the Gunners, scoring 44 goals and providing 79 appearances. His time with the London club remains memorable where he also won six trophies, 4x FA Cup, and 2x Community Shields.
In 2021, he left for Turkish club Fenerbache and then announced his retirement from his professional position in March 2023 at the age of 34.
