ARSENAL: Mesut Ozil said goodbye to his Arsenal teammates yesterday as a move to Fenerbahce moved closer.

The 32-year-old was reportedly at the club’s London Colney training ground to bid his farewells ahead of the imminent end of his seven-and-a-half-year stay.

Ozil will now travel to Turkey ahead of a medical, with the formalities expected in the coming days.

CYCLING: Wilco Kelderman and two of his Bora-Hansgrohe  teammates have been hospitalised after a car crashed into their training group, the German team said yesterday.

Kelderman, who was third in the Giro d’Italia for Sunweb last year, has a concussion and a fractured vertebra. Andreas Schillinger has fractured vertebrae and Rudiger Selig has a concussion, the team said.

The team didn’t specify where the incident happened, though it has been holding a training camp this month in Italy near Lake Garda.

BUNDESLIGA: Germany does not expect fans to be allowed back into Bundesliga matches until next season, per comments by the league’s chief executive.

Christian Seifert, head of the top two men’s leagues, presumes that there will be no change to the no-fans policy before the end of the season.

He said that no-one wants games without fans, but that “we still have them because they are the only permitted option for hosting games, and presumably we will have them until the end of the season.”
