Cazorla hits back at Real Madrid claims over Arsenal pal Ozil

Arsenalmidfielder Santi Cazorla has hit out at
Real Madridover their claims regarding new
teammate Mesut Ozil. Real president
Florentino Perez defended the £42.5million
transfer last week by claiming the German
asked to leave because "he couldn't handle
the pressure at Madrid."
But fellow midfielder Cazorla insists nothing
could be further from the truth, however.
"No, I don't think that," he toldSphera Sports.
"He was at Real Madridfor three years and he
showed his quality there.
"I don't know why he has left Madrid, but I
am sure that pressure wasn't the reason.
"Mesut has played in big games and he has
always turned up.
"I think he left for other, more personal
reasons, and not because of the pressure he
was under."
