Bayern Munich president Uli Hoeness has been branded a disgrace to his club and Germany by Mesut Ozil s agent after he slammed the Arsenal star following his retirement from international football.
Ozil released a three-part statement on Sunday hitting out at the German Football Federation, its chief Reinhard Grindel, the media and some fans for the reaction to his meeting with controversial Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan prior to the World Cup.
In his letter, Ozil – who has Turkish heritage – announced he will no longer play for Germany and Hoeness lashed out on Monday with stinging criticism.
Hoeness claimed Ozil had not won a single duel on the pitch since before the 2014 World Cup, that his performances had consistently been c***py and he was always a weak point targeted by Bayern against Arsenal.
But the 66-year-old is not being let off the hook by Ozil s agent, Dr. Erkut Sogut, who has launched a strong defence of his client by eviscerating Hoeness claims.
The comments of Mr Hoeness miss the point completely, as they have absolutely nothing to do with football, he told Goal.
It s great to have you back with us,
