After retiring, Mesut Ozil surprised fans with his muscular body

Ozil surprised fans with his muscular body

When he was at his peak playing for Werder Bremen, Real Madrid, Arsenal and Germany, Mesut Ozil was always considered one of the best attacking midfielders in the world. However, after that, Ozil’s performance declined and he moved to Fenerbahce and Istanbul Basaksehir.

Due to constant injuries, Ozil decided to leave Istanbul Basaksehir in March 2023. After that, he decided to retire from his playing career.

When he was playing, Ozil impressed with his flamboyant playing style. However, the 35-year-old former player’s weakness is his poor physical strength and slim body. That causes him to encounter many difficulties when competing for the ball with opposing players.

After retiring, Ozil actively worked out in the gym. Thanks to that, the former German player’s body has become much more muscular. Recently, fitness coach Alper Aksac surprised many fans by posting training photos of the former Turkish midfielder.

In the photo standing next to coach Alper Aksac, Ozil shows his six-tufted abs, enlarged chest and much bigger biceps than when he was playing.
