The failure to see the star Massoud Ozil as Germany's top scorer after his decision to retire from international football is a loss for every footballer. Although Ozil has forgotten the world's charm in Russia's stadiums, he remains a big star and has done much for the Manchavt. Thus, Ozil in Germany became a national hero in 2014 to become a renegade in 2018.
Undoubtedly, the failure to see Massoud Ozil as Germany's national team again after his decision to retire from international football is a loss for every footballer. Although Ozil has forgotten the world's charm in Russia's stadiums, he remains a great star and has done much for the Manchavt. To compensate in the coming events and the closest European Cup two years later, especially more talk here about a player did not exceed 29 years, that is at the height of his career in the technical and experience gained in the stadiums.
In fact, it is only a few times, or perhaps the only time, that a player's career with Manchavt ends in this way. Retiring in Germany, which is characterized by its disciplined and remote players from the media controversy, either gets older or older.
In Ozil's case, things look completely different. The gamemaker and one of the best talents of the German football in the last ten years and the world champion in 2014 retire internationally in sharp contrast with the German Football Federation, and in a tense atmosphere and controversy is expected to grow in the next few hours or days due to the circumstances that prompted this decision Due to the stardom of the retired player.
The title of the retirement is clear: a picture of Ozil gathered with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan during his meeting with him and his fellow in the "Manchavt" Elkay Gundogan in London in May, shortly before the start of the World Cup.
The picture - the problem I did did in German circles. Ozil appeared smiling alongside Erdogan as he gave him his shirt at Arsenal. The merits of the picture and its timing made Ozil vulnerable to widespread political and sports criticism in Germany.
It is no secret that Ozil put himself in the wrong. Despite his Turkish roots, his image alongside Erdogan was provocative. Timing played its role as the meeting was in the midst of preparations for the World Cup and the days before the Turkish presidential election. Ozil, although he did not intend to deny his political intentions, participated in free political propaganda for Erdogan, especially since Germany includes more than 3 million Turkish immigrants, the largest community in the country. Later Erdogan won. 1.4 million people from the Turkish community in Germany who cast their votes, the largest proportion of outside Turkey, which participated in the election, voted for the majority of Erdogan.
Moreover, the image of Ozil and Erdoğan came after a period of strained relations between Germany and Turkey against the background of the Turkish authorities launched a campaign of arrests months before the German citizens in Turkey following the failed coup in the country, especially more in the face of Germany's reluctance to join Turkey to the European Union.
Before this scene, that a player born in Germany and grew up in it and knew the star and his fame to take a picture with the Turkish President shortly before the national mission of the "Almnshavt" in the World Cup, this was very provocative to the Germans, which did not wake him Ozil despite repeated That he is emotionally attached to Turkey as well as to Germany and not to political ends from his meeting with Erdogan.
And more, the Turkish government ministers welcomed Ozil's departure this morning from the German team but confirms that the Ozil issue has taken a political direction above all else.
To illustrate the depth of the attraction between the Germans and the Turks is enough to mention, for example, the issue of Karim Demberbay, which turned about a year ago to the issue of public opinion and disobedience and conflict between the Germans and Turks arrived at the "FIFA" against the backdrop of the two countries to wear the shirt of their teams before the latter decides things and decides Play for Germany.
But in fact, this last big debate about Ozil is not the first of its kind in Germany. The German press has already criticized the immigrant players, the Turks in particular, for not returning the German anthem during the "Manchavt" games. They were accused of not belonging to Germany Again on the lack of integration of immigrants in German society. Of course, what Ozil finally did was the mistake the Germans were waiting for.
Here, too, one can not rule out another mathematical issue in the German-Turkish rivalry - the two countries compete to host the European Cup in 2024.
But this whole scene does not justify the blunt campaign of a star like Ozil on the German right, which seems to have influenced his performance at the World Cup. Ozil looked like a ghost to the talented player who wore the Manchavt shirt at the 2010 and 2010 FIFA World Cups. Ozil, if he showed his good performance against Mexico in the first game and won by Germany and completed its way in the tournament, it did not take this direction and reached the point.
Ozil made a mistake. He probably made a mistake in terms of which he does not know, but Germany has in turn measured this star and things could have been better handled. Thus, Ozil in Germany became a national hero in 2014 to become a renegade in 2018.
In the end, it can only be said that the departure of a talented player like Ozil from Germany, in this way, regardless of the circumstances and performance of this star in the World Cup Russia, is a great loss came prematurely.
