Former Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil has declared his support for Tottenham ahead of their clash with Manchester City.
Mikel Arteta‘s men ensured the Premier League title race will go to the wire after beating Manchester United on Sunday.
The north london side are a point ahead of City, who play their game in hand against Tottenham on Tuesday night.
A win or a draw for Ange Postecoglou men will see Arsenal take control of their own destiny ahead of the final day.

The former playmaker posted on X: ‘First time ever tonight: COME ON YOU SPURSSS!! If Tottenham don’t lose this game I will never make fun of them again… I promise.’
