MESUT OZIL has undergone an incredible body transformation thanks to his hard work in the gym.
The former Arsenal star has been working out under the guidance of personal trainer Alper Aksac.
While he boasted a six-pack during his playing days, Ozil was always rather scrawny and one of his biggest weaknesses was his physicality.
Since retiring earlier this year the former Germany international has been a regular at the gym – and he has bulked up as a result.
Ozil’s trainer has shared several clips of him hard at work, with the 35-year-old going through a range of exercises from push-ups to bicep curls.
The former midfielder flexed his biceps on a cable machine and curled dumbells to increase his muscles.

One said: “Bro needs to come out of retirement play for like three or four more years.”
Another added: “Ozil start playing football againš”
