Chelsea boss Mourinho "happy" Ozil made Arsenal move

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho insists he's happy to see Mesut Ozil in the Premier League.

There has been talk of Mourinho now rating Arsenal as title contenders following their deal for the former Real Madrid midfielder.

"I'm surprised Madrid have let him go but that's football," said Mourinho. "That's the market. Ozil left a big club but comes to the biggest league in the world. If Madrid sold him it was because it was good for them. I am happy a big player like him comes to the Premier League."
