Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has claimed that Mesut Ozil has proven that he is "motivated" to perform for the Gunners, despite persistent speculation about his future.
With less than a year remaining on his contract, Ozil has been heavily linked with a move away from the Emirates Stadium, but the playmaker contributed a goal and an assist during the 5-2 victory over Everton last weekend.
The German international had been making his first start in six weeks, but Wenger has praised the 29-year-old condition after his return to the side.
The Frenchman told reporters: "He's in a very good shape at the moment physically. He's focused and motivated so I would say yes.
"What people question is their commitment (Alexis Sanchez and Ozil) I didn't and what happened on Sunday proved that even more."
Ozil is likely to start when Arsenal host Swansea City on Saturday afternoon.
